CHICKEN ARIZONA



Chicken Arizona image

A workweek's worth of dinner with simple changes (chicken chili and smothered burritos). These meals can also be made with whatever is on hand or regional brands of Hispanic foods, the most important thing is to mix and match. If your family doesn't care for spicy foods, tone down the peppers but if they do you could go wild!
