This was quite an easy and delicious dish. I baked my a little longer than I should have (phone call) but that was my fault. Next time like another reviewer I think I will try skipping the browning. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag game Jan-June 2012.

A hidden gem. I skipped the browning step, and seasoned the chicken on both sides with Recipe #76616. It was gone in a blink of an eye. Should be a staple in every home. Thank you.

Super simple but a little bland for my taste. Next time I will use a lot more taco seasoning.

Very moist and flavorful chicken! Easy to prepare as well. I may skip the browning step next time even. I baked 2 breasts in an oversized bread pan and it reduced the cheese run-out issue. Added shredded cheese on top. Served with refried beans, tortillas, and rice. Yum!
