Hmm any advice for making a garlic and chilli sauce?

Well I am completely obsessed with this recipe they have at Harvester called Kickin’ Garlic Chicken. Basically it is half a chicken with the best sauce i’ve ever tasted smothered over it. I want to replicate it myself, but I have no experience at making sauces at all.
I have only a limited idea of the ingredients in it which includes chilli flakes, garlic, and butter/oil. Can anyone suggest a recipe that’ll produce something similar.
I was just going to go try something myself involving frying blitzed garlic/chopped chillis/onions and then melt some butter and combine together. Do you think this’ll work? Also what herbs do you think’ll go well with it.
Any additional info can be provided, providing you have the questions :).

Mmm, don’t really have any butter left. Would margarine and oil mixed together work instead?
get garlic, add chili powder.
You need to roast a head of fresh garlic and a couple of hot peppers of your choice. Mash the garlic and peeled diced chili up with an oil/butter mix. Add a little thyme, salt, a liberal splash of hot sauce and heat it through. Baste the chicken with it while you grill or broil it.
Haha can’t believe I had no idea what to do with this. I blame one month of not cooking for yourself as when I got back to uni all my cooking skills seemed to have vanished.
Made a complete mess of it first time but it tasted fine, so I’ll provide a recipe in case anyone was interested that should definitely be close to perfect. Tailored though to the ingredients I possess in my cupboard/fridge.
Ingredients:
chicken breast
garlic butter
butter
salt
pepper
parsley
crushed chilli flakes (dried)
paprika
1. Cut chicken up into thin strips
2. Melt some butter or oil into a frying pan and fry the strips of chicken. Cook chicken until done.
3. Make the sauce separately (I originally tried to make it when frying but forgot that the butter would just burn). I would probably try the melting-chocolate method and just melt butter and garlic butter over a pan of hot water, and add the parsley and chilli flakes.
