Mexican Chicken with Cheese Sauce

Prepare the Chicken:

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper on both sides. This will infuse the chicken with delicious flavors.

Cook the Chicken:

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have a nice golden color.

Add Salsa:

Once the chicken is cooked, pour the salsa over the chicken in the skillet. Let it simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Add Cheese:

Sprinkle the shredded Mexican cheese blend over the chicken and salsa mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve:

Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Enjoy your Mexican Chicken with Cheese Sauce over rice, tortillas, or on its own for a delightful meal!
