"Unsweetened chocolate is used in Latin molé sauces, so why not use cocoa powder in a breading for chicken? I like to buy a whole chicken (less expensive) and cut it up myself but you can easily use pre-cut light or dark chicken parts. The marination time adds moisture to the white meat and tenderizes the dark meat, so plan ahead for this simple step. Feel free to increase the chili powder if you like spicy foods...."
