MAKE-AHEAD MEXICAN CHICKEN (OAMC)
This recipe is from a Pampered Chef party photocopy. I have always read and heard that it is not best practice to cook chicken in the juice that it marinates in, but I did for this recipe, and I'm still alive. It is not ABSOLUTELY necessary to freeze the chicken after combining all the ingredients in the bag - in fact, for my experience, I just took out frozen chicken breasts and defrosted the chicken in the sauce (in the fridge) and made it the very next night. The freezing part is just an option for busy people to have a convenient ready-made meal waiting in the freezer. I served this with cornbread and steamed veggies, but fiesta-style rice might be nice as well.

Steps:
- Write "Mexican Chicken - 400 degrees F for 45 min, then melt cheese on top" on the outside of a Ziploc bag.
- Place the chicken in a freezer bag.
- Add all of the ingredients to the freezer bag, except the cheese.
- Coat the chicken well, squeeze all of the air out of the bag, and freeze.
- When you are ready to make the chicken, defrost the chicken in the refrigerator for 24 hours (this also marinates the chicken in the salsa).
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (as you have written on your bag, so you wouldn't forget!).
- Lightly spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Place the chicken in pan, and pour the sauce over the chicken.
- Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
- Sprinkle cheddar cheese on the top, and put back into the oven, until the cheese melts (the broiler would be a good alternative for this step too).
MEXICAN CHICKEN- OAMC
This is really a versatile recipe, and economical, too. It can be used so many ways... as a filling for burritos, a topping for nachos, or as a side dish. I've also served it in bowls with nachos for scooping. I like to add some cheese no matter how I serve it. I had never cooked with barley before I started making this, but found it easy and tasty- kind of like rice. As prepared here it makes a lot, but you could easily half the recipe.

Steps:
- In a large Dutch oven, cook the onion and garlic in oil until tender.
- Add in all ingredients (including spices) except for chicken. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the cooked chicken; continue simmering another 10 minutes or until the chicken is heated through and the barley is tender.
- To freeze: cool, spoon into quart-sized freezer bags, label, and freeze flat.
- To serve: Thaw chicken mixture. Heat in a skillet until hot. Serve over corn tortilla chips or scoop into flour tortillas, fajita-style.
- Note: If you choose to use regular barley rather than quick cooking barley, you'll want to cook it ahead of time, which takes about an hour. Follow the directions on the box.
