You’ve gotta love when one recipe – salsa chicken can turn into at least 6 other different recipes on our site. This super simple recipe is my favorite when you want a little spice and something easy to prep while on the go! At only two ingredients, it doesn’t get much better.
After the chicken is made, eat it plain with tacos or use the meat for any of these other recipes on our site:
If you are going to be using your salsa chicken for other recipes during the week, be sure to read the notes at the bottom of the recipe to ensure you make enough.

Notes
The yummiest and easiest chicken to make! I prefer to use all organic pasture raised chicken thighs for the best taste! Detox approved with zero sugar added salsa!
Fave Salsas with NO sugar!
Costco – Organic Restaurant Style
Trader Joes – Salsa Verde
If you are going to be using this protein for another recipe, double the meat for every recipe. When I make this, I always turn it into 2 recipes, and so I use 3 lbs. of chicken, for a family of 4.
