Salsa Chicken Skillet

Salsa Chicken Skillet at Miz Helen's Country Cottage

Salsa Chicken Skillet is one of those recipes that goes together in no time and your family can be enjoying the meal on a very busy day. The chicken has a very special rub that gives it lots of Tex Mex flavors. After cooking, it simmers with some salsa and cheese, to top off a great recipe. Just add some lime and cilantro with a sliced avocado and this is a plate full of goodness. I have added one of my favorite rice casserole recipes to the meal that really compliments the chicken.
