Preparation

Step 1

Fix the salsa first so the flavors have time to develop. Serve with baked tortilla chips, reduced-fat sour cream, and frozen margaritas for a quick, festive dinner.

Discard husks and stems from the tomatillos, and finely chop. Combine tomatillos and the next 6 ingredients (through pepper) in a medium bowl.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle chicken evenly with seasoning. Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes. Turn chicken over. Reduce heat, and cook 5 minutes or until done.

Serve chicken with tomatillo mixture.
