Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • your favorite salad dressing (not creamy)
  • 1 box Spanish rice (Rice a Roni or your favorite)
  • 14 medium onion, thinly sliced and separated.
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters.
  • 1 cup chunky salsa
  • cayenne pepper
  • hot sauce
  • pickled jalapeno pepper (optional)
  • 12 cup monterey jack cheese
  • 12 cup cheddar cheese

Method

  • Marinate the chicken breasts for an hour in your favorite non-creamy salad dressing (I use zesty italian)
  • Bake the chicken in a glass baking dish for 50-60 minutes (or until done) at 375 degrees.
  • Make the Spanish Rice (follow the directions on the box).
  • Fry the sliced onion in a tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Once the onions are half-cooked, add the cherry tomatoes.
  • When the tomatoes are hot, add the salsa and cayenne pepper and hot sauce to taste.
  • Remove the chicken from the baking dish and replace it with the finished rice.
  • Put the chicken breasts on top and then spoon the tomato mixture over the chicken and rice.
  • Scatter pickled jalapenos over the dish (optional).
  • Sprinkle the cheese over the dish and then put it back into the oven for 8-10 minutes or until everything is heated throughout and the cheese is melted.
