Great healthy meal my kids even liked. I used salsa in place of a 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes (making a whole cup of salsa). I also added about 1/2 cup of black beans. Topped with the cheese and a spoonful of sour cream. Delicious. I can't wait to make it again!

I love this recipe, I only make a couple changes, instead of the tomato, I add a can of rinsed black beans with the corn, salsa and chicken. The chicken will almost melt in your mouth, it steams in the packet I serve this over brown rice. Makes for a quick and easy meal. I also think it is pretty healthy! Base the time to cook on the size of your chicken breast.
