SALSA CHICKEN



Salsa Chicken image

Someone gave me this recipe a few years back and it's become a household favorite. You can use mild, medium or hot salsa depending on your taste. I usually serve it with Spanish rice and Mexican-style canned corn. Very easy and quick!

SALSA VERDE CHICKEN SALAD



Salsa Verde Chicken Salad image

The salsa verde is the real star of this dish. It complements the sweetness of the beans and adds dimension to the taste of the chicken. It is a fantastic low carb main dish, but if you were so inclined you could serve it with some crusty bread. The anchovies are optional, but I promise you will regret it if you leave them out. Even people who say they don't like them can't taste them in this dish. It should be noted that this recipe makes more salsa verde than is needed for the salad. I always make more because it is so delicious. Posted by request.
