How easy was that? My butcher gets freakishly large chickens, so one breast-half was MORE than enough for the two of us. I sliced it against the grain, and fanned it over spanish rice. I did cook two, so the other one I will use in wraps or burritos tonight. Really moist, flavourful chicken, thanks!

I made this with mild taco sauce instead of salsa (so it wouldn't have the chunks from the salsa). It was a hit! The chicken was juicy and flavorful and I loved that I didn't have to marinate it so it was a low / no prep sort of meal (I don't always think ahead to dinner time...) I was very pleased with how well it turned out especially since it was so easy and required so few ingredients. I served it with Spanish style rice. Thanks so much for a keeper!
