Easy-Cheesy Salsa Chicken image

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.

Categories     Chicken

Time 55m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
olive oil, enough to brown the chicken in
salsa, I use Pace, but whatever your favorite is will work
shredded cheddar cheese, for topping (Monterey Jack works well too, so would Pepper Jack)

Steps:

  • Flatten Chicken Breasts so they are of equal thickness for even cooking.
  • In stir-fry skillet or any deep frying pan (with lid), heat your Olive Oil.
  • Add the Chicken Breasts and brown on both sides until no longer pink inside.
  • Pour over salsa to your liking. I use about a half a 16 oz. jar. I also add a little water to tone down the heat, (hubby can't handle spice).
  • Cover and simmer chicken in salsa for about half-hour to 45 minutes.
  • Top with cheese to serve.
