Easy Taco Salsa Chicken Breasts

This is so easy to make and really good, the recipe may be doubled if desired. If you are in a hurry you may omit browning the chicken first, but I think browning the chicken produces much more flavor, you can even brown the chicken hours in advance or in the morning, refrigerate and then bake later as directed --- don't forget to serve topped with cold sour cream, this is what really makes the chicken!

- Place the brown chicken into a shallow baking dish (I use an 8x8-inch dish for 4 breasts).
- Pour the salsa over the chicken pieces.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes, or until chicken is done.
- Remove from oven, and sprinkle with the grated cheddar cheese.
- Place back in oven, and bake for another 5-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

Loved it! Very easy, tastes great. I browned them first, and though I've never made this before I can tell that not browning them would not be as good. Agree with other reviewers, sour cream makes this dish, don't forget it! Thanks for a great recipe (:Reply

WOW! This was really good. I couldn't believe something so simple would be so good! As the past reviewers stated, the sour cream made it. I used fat free sour cream, and it was delicious! Thanks Kittencal!Reply

We had this for dinner tonight and it is wonderful! I love the combination of all the ingredients. It made for a quick, delicious and juicy chicken dish. Hubby and I agree, the addition of sour cream takes this one over the top! Thanks, Kit.Reply
