3 INGREDIENT CHICKEN RECIPE

 Coming at you guys with another easy and simple recipe with only 3 main ingredients! I am all about fast and simple recipes, especially lately when I have been crazy busy with school and work. One of the great things about cooking dinner in the oven is that you don't have to watch it as closely and you can work on other stuff while it is cooking. 

Here is the recipe that I got inspiration from: https://www.eatwell101.com/salsa-fresca-chicken-bake-recipe#recipecardo. The recipe calls for making your own fresh salsa by hand, but I find it easier to just buy a package of pico de gallo at the store. This will save you money and time. I also made enough to have as leftovers the next day for lunch, but if you only want it for dinner one night then I would half the recipe. 

INGREDIENTS:

- 2 chicken breasts

- 1 package of mild pico de gallo

- 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese 

- spices: salt, pepper, onion power, garlic powder, paprika 

STEPS:

First, preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the chicken into small pieces (about 1inch cubes). Place the chicken into a bowl and drizzle with a little olive oil. Put all of the seasonings into the bowl. I used salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika, but you can use whatever seasonings you like or none at all. I mixed the chicken until it was all evenly coded with the spices. 

Next, add the chicken into a baking dish and spread it out until there is an even layer. This is important so that the chicken cooks evenly. Spread a package of mild pico de gallo on top of the chicken and then top it with mozzarella cheese. Place in the oven and cook for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked through.
