Creamy Mexican Chicken

"This is a recipe I just tried last night and my husband wouldn't quit raving about! It's easy to make, light on calories, and great for the whole family. It can be made spicier or milder depending on you taste. We like it very spicy, so we added some cayenne before putting it in the oven."

  1. What a great dish. I hope more people try it. The combination of flavors is awesome. I use Zatteran's Spanish Rice although I'm sure most any packaged rice would work. The timing worked out great as far as the rice cooking while the chicken and spices were browning and cooking. Everyone liked it and this will definitely go in the regular rotation for evening meals. Thanks so much for posting this!
