My son loves this simple yet tasty dish. He is always asking me to make it when he comes to visit. -
This recipe gets points from me for versatility! I used boneless chicken thighs and it was really tasty, and I imagine you could use just about any meat here with success! The meat turned out very tender and yummy, and was enjoyed both in tortillas and next to roasted potatoes and calabacitas. I did add a fair amount of garlic and salt, and I am thinking it is important to have the most flavorful salsa possible. I also think next time (and there will be a next time!!) I will use chicken broth instead of water (or beef broth--you get the picture!). Thanks, AZ! Made for 123 Hits Tag. -
Wonderful and simple dish that was enjoyed by all. My daughter who isn't a fan of Mexican or meat even ate this without a complaint. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks so much for posting this flavorful recipe. Made and reviewed for the 46th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

<p><span><strong>I am a stay at home mom to two wonderful boys; Joshua (8years), Kaiden (5 years), and baby GIRL, Madalynn (19 months)! I also have two fur babies (cats); Kobee, AJ; we had to put our youngest cat Sly down Jan 2014. :(. I am also married to my best friend, Jeff and have been since April 2005. I love cooking, hate cleaning and will do whatever I can to get out of it! I love grilling and baking. I do most of the grilling at my house, and bake for almost a week straight at Christmas time! I can make or will attempt just about anything, though I rarely make brownies, my husband's are the best! Homemade breads are not my friend, so I am always working on bread baking.</strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>As for recipe ideas (besides zaar) Cooking Light Cookbooks are my favorites. I love to make new meals and try new things; it is hard though because my husband is picky when it comes to veggies (and hates seafood); If it were up to him we would have baked-bread crumb chicken and white rice at least one meal a day! Over the past couple years with zaar, I have found tons of new recipes my family normally wouldn’t eat but have been happily surprised with new favorites.</strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>I love to join in all of the tag games; I haven't been as present as I would like, but as soon as my Jeff is back from working in Ohio I will be back in full tagging mode! </strong></span></p>
<p><span><strong>Cooking is my hobby and passion, I always like to host the family get togethers and volunteer for the potluck dishes. Most of all though are my kids; being home all day with them is fun and challenging, but I wouldn’t trade it for any salary!!</strong></span></p>
