SALSA FRESCA CHICKEN BAKE RECIPE
Growing up in Texas I have that deep rooted love of Tex-mex cuisine pretty much running through my blood. If it is wrapped in a tortilla, covered in cheese or doused in salsa, chances are it is something I am dreaming of eating 98% of the time. Tex-mex doesn’t tend to be the lightest or healthiest cuisine, but this Salsa Fresca Chicken changes all that.
