Salsa Chicken
Easy to make chicken dish. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix, OR you can make from a shortcut listed on this site
- 1 1/2 cups salsa, OR you can make from a shortcut listed on this site
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- sour cream, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 190 C.
- Pour 1/2 cup of salsa in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish and spread around to coat the bottom.
- Place the taco seasoning on a plate and coat chicken breasts. Place the chicken in the baking pan on top of the salsa. Pour remaining salsa over the top of the chicken.
- Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until tender and juices run clear.
- Remove from the oven, spread cheese over the top and return to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven and top with a spoonful of sour cream if desired when you serve. Broccoli or corn on the cob, and Spanish rice would make great side dishes.
Notes
Boneless and skinless chicken breasts run about 87 Baht/kilo, 4 should be about 1 kilo or just under. Salsa is about 60 Baht/jar, would need 2 jars. Cost per person per meal would be about $1.50. Using thighs or quarters would reduce that cost even further.
