I don't know where this idea came from, but I am sure I didn't invent it. It is, however, one of the easiest recipes you can make & the chicken comes out sooooo juicy & tender. You'll be surprised just how delicious this dish is!

How To Make easiest mexi-style chicken

Step 1

Mix 1 cup of water w/ taco seasoning. Marinate chicken for at least one hour (I usually do this overnight).

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pour salsa in bottom of baking dish & lay marinated chicken on top. Bake for 30 minutes. Top w/ cheese & bake another 5-10 mins.

That's it!!!! I throw some sprinkled cilantro on top for color.
