Chicken Sauce Piquante

Chicken sauce piquante is an American dish originating from Louisiana. It consists of chicken doused in a spicy gravy. Typical ingredients used in its preparation include flour, chicken, oil, onions, celery, bell peppers, tomatoes, jalapeños, garlic, chicken stock, and Tabasco sauce.
