Preparation
Step 1
at our house, but the same old dinners can get old and boring fast. So I like to mix it up and make sure that my family stays excited about dinner.
We are in the new year and some many people are trying to keep track of what they are eating, and make sure it is a little healthier. This Southwest Baked Chicken recipe is perfect. You get all the delicious Mexican flavors, but in something you can feel good about eating and feeding your family.
I am serving this Southwest Baked Chicken with Lipton Iced Tea Diet Citrus Green Tea flavor. The slightly sweet flavor is exactly what a spicy chicken dinner needs. It is refreshing and goes well with just about everything! Lipton has so many great flavors of iced tea, you will have to see what your favorite is to serve at meal time.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Sprinkle taco seasoning evenly over both sides of chicken. Place in a baking dish. Pour salsa over the top of the chicken.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Garnish with cilantro if using
Serve immediately.
