This was so yummy! I had my 16 year old son make this and it was wonderful (he is a culinary student). We used a few strips of turkey bacon cut up then cooked in place of the bacon bits. I also used a tex-mex seasoning I make that is salt free instead of the southwest seasoning as that is what I had on hand. I served it with baked red potatoes and steamed green beans. It was way better than the full fat/calorie versions that I have had in the past. So easy, quick and tasty. Thanks for posting this, it will be a regular at my house.

A very easy, very yummy, and very fast recipe, to devour and to make. The only change was I have already previously cooked/frozen "Southwest" seasoned chicken breasts in my freezer, so I picked up on the recipe after I defrosted and reheated the previously cooked chicken breast for 1 and 1/2 minutes in the microwave. Sprayed some foil, put chicken breast on top, and followed from there. All heated, warmed, and oh so tasty. I had everything on hand, and even the chicken not cooked previously would of only taken minutes as well. I served this sitting atop lettuces leaves, added a bit of dressing and made a warm chicken/lettuce salad. Thank you couponmommy123! Made for *New Kids on the Block* tag game. February, 2009.
