Salsa Chicken with Rice

Here’s a family favorite, especially for when you need a quick dinner! We had it last night and it amazes me every time we have it, because it’s SO easy and SO good!

4 chicken breasts or tenders
1 jar of your favorite salsa
¾ cup shredded Mexican style or cheddar cheese
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
2 cups rice
For garnish: green onion, cilantro and sour cream

Spray caking dish with Pam and then place chicken in. Coat the chicken with the salsa, sprinkle taco seasoning over the top and mix to blend. Then add the sliced red and green bell peppers to the top of the salsa and chicken. Spread the cheese over the top and put in a 350 degree oven until chicken is cooked through. I try to use the chicken tenders in this dish since they are a much smaller cut and they cook much faster. Serve over rice, and garnish with green onion, cilantro and sour cream. Enjoy!
