Salsa Chicken for One

By

My husband and I prefer our food a little spicier than our children, so one evening I baked plain chicken for the kids and created this dish for us," Jan Cooper relates from Troy, Alabama. "My husband liked it so well that it is now a regular menu item at our house."


MY NOTES: This is a good, easy recipe and can be double to serve two people...or three or four or more.
