My family loved this chicken! I used 1/2 a jalapeno chopped fine in the salsa, and marinated the chicken breasts, (pounded to uniform size), for 5 hours. Next time, (and there will be many next times!) I'll probably marinate overnight. This marinade gave the chicken such a wonderful sweet sour kind of taste, and the meat was SO tender. The kind of mustard was not specified in the original recipe, whether it be prepared or dry, so I used honey mustard. Great recipe! Thanks for a keeper.
