SALSA CHICKEN
Someone gave me this recipe a few years back and it's become a household favorite. You can use mild, medium or hot salsa depending on your taste. I usually serve it with Spanish rice and Mexican-style canned corn. Very easy and quick!

MEXICAN SALSA CHICKEN
I got this recipe from my sister about 15yrs ago...my sister doesn't really love to cook & doesn't try a lot of new or 'different' dishes, and follows a recipe to the 'T'..unlike myself.....originally it was made in a crock pot and then baked. But I found the 2 step process to be to time consuming as well as creating more dirty dishes (ugh)...I have changed it up a bit to my familys tastes ....I serve with rice and corn and a nice tossed salad. enjoy :)
