Provided by Kristen Stevens

Categories     Dinner

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken breasts
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
½ teaspoon EACH: salt and pepper
2 teaspoons cooking oil
1 ½ cups chunky salsa
½ cup frozen corn
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (a mix of white and orange cheddar is nice)
Cilantro (to serve)

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so that you have 4 thinner pieces. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the taco seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan.
  • Add the salsa and corn to the pan and stir, scraping up any bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the chicken back into the pan. Cover the pan and let the chicken simmer in the salsa for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Top with the cheese then cover the pan and let the cheese melt, about 1 minute. Serve with some cilantro over the top.

MEXICAN SALSA CHICKEN



Mexican Salsa Chicken image

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 :)
