Easy Cheesy Salsa Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I make this in the oven. I flatten the chicken, place it on a rimmed baking sheet pan lined with nonstick foil. Cover with salsa (any kind - use a fresh prepared mild) and bake at 375f. for about 20 minutes or until the internal temp. is 165f. Then I top with shredded cheese, etc. Bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes, and serve!.

    Easy-Cheesy Salsa Chicken, This is such a simple dish to make No measuring needed Just add the ingredients to your liking I have made this with Spanish Rice before and it is great, or just plain rice works too Refried Beans, complete the menu , I make this in the oven I flatten the chicken, place it on a rimmed baking sheet pan lined with nonstick foil Cover with salsa (any kind – use a fresh prepared mild) and bake at 375f for about 20 minutes or until the internal temp is 165f Then I top with shredded cheese, etc Bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes, and serve! , I also make a version of this, using Pace! The only thing I do differently is roast an ear of corn and some zucchini under the broiler, rough chop the zucchini, cut the kernels off and add both near the end of the cooking time The roasted corn adds a bit of sweetness and color I serve with white or brown rice and cilantro, and of course grated cheddar! Delish and healthy!
