Recipe File: Sneak Peek: Chicken

Mexican Chicken

​Sometimes we ignore the simple meals, forgetting that simple doesn't have to be boring and flavourless. This meal is certainly not boring or flavourless, but it is quick, easy and cheap. You can spice it up even more by adding chilli to taste to the chicken.

Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 cup salsa
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch ground cumin

Method:
Preheat oven to 190 degrees. Heat a greased fry pan to medium. Rub chicken pieces with garlic, salt, pepper and cumin to taste and add to hot fry pan. Cook until brown on both sides and no longer pink (10 to 15 minutes). Transfer meat to an oiled baking dish or casserole dish, top with salsa and cheese and bake for 15 to 20 minutes - until cheese is bubbly and starts to brown. Serve over Simple Savoury Rice.

Variation:  Add diced chilli to taste if you like a really  spicy dish.
