Directions
Chicken Breasts Con Rajas, Mexican spices make this a zesty south-of-the-border chicken dish , This was an excellent dish and has a future as a company dinner I followed the directions as written with just a little jalapeno tossed in However, next time I would do it in a single layer I think it would be nice to have that good cheese topping on all of the breasts rather than the top few I’d probably increase the liquid to be sure it was still saucy and not dry I also served it with a spicy Mexican rice Definitely a keeper , We all gave this one a five star rating and it was relatively quick and easy used a mild salsa and Ortega green chilies, which made the dish not at all spicy in our opinions Next time I think I might try a little hotter pepper
