Maggie....made this meal tonight and we loved it! Very very easy! Unfortunately, I didn't use a recipe so the amounts of the few indgredients I used are "to taste". Also, if you make it, maybe you can come up with a better name.
Ingredients:
3 Boneless Chicken Breasts; Halved
1 16 oz. Jar of Salsa (Used Ortega Original Salsa-Mild)
Sprinkle of Minced Onions
Sprinkle of Garlic (Garlic Mill)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper
Shredded Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheese
Directions:
. Drizzle a large skillet with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and heat on medium heat.
. Halve chicken breasts and salt & pepper each side.
. After chicken is in pan, I added the minced onion and garlic.
. Cook chicken approximately 4-5 minutes on each side until slightly browned.
. Add salsa and lower heat to medium-low; cook about another 5 minutes, until bubbly.
. Plate chicken, sprinkle cheese on top and add a little more salsa on top (helps to melt cheese).
Notes:
I would probably use more salsa next time. What I like about this recipe is that you can cut the calories down by using low fat cheese and cooking spray. But I do think the olive oil adds to the taste! Totally forgot to take a picture, but according to your Father, this recipe goes on the top of the pile; so hopefully next time I'll remember.
