Chicken in a Southwest Sauce

The other night I was craving mexican style food but was not in the mood for ground beef.  I found a recipe for southwestern sauce, and decided to adapt it a little to make this recipe.  This recipe was exactly what I wanted and it so simple.

  • 2 cups of shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1 cups of salsa 
  • Rice for serving
