Chicken Fiesta

Patricia @ ButterYum

Today I’m sharing a simple chicken recipe that was inspired by a menu item I used to order at a restaurant years ago. The chicken is served slightly warm, which contrasts nicely against the cold, crisp lettuce, salsa, and cheese. This recipe is great any time of year, but it’s particularly nice served during the summer. Oh, and it’s Keto-Friendly too!

Top with your favorite salsa or try one of my recipes. This Charred Poblano Salsa is one of my favorites. Want something green? Try this Charred Tomatillo Salsa (salsa verde). Here’s an Easy Restaurant Salsa featuring canned tomatoes and chiles. And here’s a post that teaches you How to Make Amazing Salsa Without a Recipe.

Lastly, sprinkle the salsa with a liberal amount of finely shredded Mexican blend cheese.
