Cha Cha Chicken

I don’t know where I got this recipe from, but recipes are only guidelines for me, so I am not sure if this is the real recipe or my variation of the original. I didn’t even know what to call it! I love this dish, and so does my entire family. I serve with Spanish rice or ranch beans and a salad.

Ingredients

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 lime, or to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup chunky salsa
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Arrange chicken in the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Squeeze lime juice over the chicken and season with salt and pepper.

Step 3
Mix salsa and garlic together in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 cup of the salsa mixture over each chicken breast; top with more lime juice.

Step 4
Cook chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 50 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
