This is one of my favorite recipes because it is so easy and looks so colorful and delicious! I always have the ingredients on hand for Southwestern Chicken when I want an easy dinner. My daughter-in-law shared this recipe with me. I’ve altered it a bit because I like more sauce. There are 3 ingredients plus chicken and simple, super easy directions.
