This dish is wonderful both with chicken and pork. My family loves it no matter where I use it (carnitas, burritos, enchiladas... the list goes on). It freezes extremely well, so I always make extra.

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (16 ounce) jar green salsa
