ONE SKILLET MEXICAN CHICKEN



One Skillet Mexican Chicken image

This is my family's go-to meal when we want something quick and delicious. The best part of all is there is only one pan to clean. We use La Victoria Hot Salsa, but any salsa works great. You can eat this dish alone or put it in tortillas for burritos.
