Mexican Salsa Chicken image

I got this recipe from my sister about 15yrs ago...my sister doesn't really love to cook & doesn't try a lot of new or 'different' dishes, and follows a recipe to the 'T'..unlike myself.....originally it was made in a crock pot and then baked. But I found the 2 step process to be to time consuming as well as creating more dirty dishes (ugh)...I have changed it up a bit to my familys tastes ....I serve with rice and corn and a nice tossed salad. enjoy :)

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe with tofu instead of chicken. It turned out great! The tofu was flavorful and absorbed the salsa perfectly.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover salsa. I always have a jar of salsa in my fridge, so this recipe is a lifesaver.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover rotisserie chicken, and it worked perfectly in this dish.

The chicken was a little dry for my taste, but the salsa was delicious. I would definitely make this recipe again, but I would cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time.
