Preparation

Step 1

1. In 12 inch skillet, cook chicken over medium high heat in UNSEASONED pan (do NOT spray with PAM or add any oil or butter).

2 Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper to taste.

3 Chicken will stick a bit to skillet when turning but that is ok.

4 Cook till just brown- you want a bit of color.

5 Add the entire jar of Salsa and the can of Diet Coke.

6 Reduce heat to medium low- and simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes, covered.

7 Remove lid, turn chicken and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened to desired consistency.

8 When ready to serve, squeeze juice from 1 fresh lime over the chicken.

9 I serve this over yellow rice (I just add turmeric to my rice when cooking- adds nice bright yellow color!).

10 Do not use regular Coke as this will turn out too sweet.

11 I promise--you cannot taste the Diet Coke
