Salsa Chicken


Salsa Chicken
*****

I don't know if you can really even call this a recipe, but I wanted to share it, since it's one of Matthew's favorite and it so easy!


INGREDIENTS:
chicken tenders
salsa
cheddar cheese slices

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350*.
2. In a greased pan, I usually use 8x8 but depends on how much chicken you're doing. Usually between 6-8 tenders thawed (I've used frozen too, closer to 30 min for frozen) chicken for my family.
3. Pour salsa over the top. I usually use a whole pint jar of homemade salsa.
4. Put in the preheated oven until chicken is cooked, about 15-20 (for thawed) or 25-30 min (for frozen). depending on the size and amount of your chicken. Test with meat thermometer to make sure chicken is cooked. It will be slightly pink even when cooked because of the salsa, but don't over cook.
5. After cooked, remove from the oven and top with sliced cheese immediately so cheese melts over chicken.

**This is super great on the grill too! Marinate the chicken in salsa for a few hours before grilling then top with cheese before removing from grill to melt cheese!**

This is naturally GLUTEN FREE! :)

ENJOY!
