Salsa Chicken

This is a super fast meal you can make in like 30 minutes! My aunt would fry chicken wings and then saute them with salsa, so I decided to lighten it up a bit :)

Servings: 4/1 piece per serving

Ingredients:

2 Boneless/Skinless Chicken Breast with fat trimmed

2 cups of Mild Chunky Salsa

Cooking Spray

1 tbsp McCormick Roasted Herb, Garlic and Onion Seasoning

Instructions:

Heat skillet on Medium and generously spray with your cooking spray.

Slice each chicken breast into 2( take the chicken breast and starting from the top fat half insert knife in the middle and cut straight across). 

Place chicken in skillet and add half tbsp on top. Once you see it turning white around the edges flip it over and sprinkle the remainder of the seasoning. (You may have to spray additional cooking spray to keep from burning)

Once chicken is cooked through(clear juices running out). Add the salsa and mix it around and under the chicken breast. Cook for 5 minutes on low. And your done! Serve with veggies or brown rice or both for a complete meal!
