1can (16 oz) Old El Paso™ medium salsa OR Muir Glen™ organic medium salsa

1 1/2lbs uncooked chicken breast, dicedSalt, to taste

2cups Mexican-style cheese

2cups cooked Mexican rice

Steps

Begin by gathering your ingredients.

Pour salsa in the bottom of 3-4 quart slow cooker. Place chicken breast on top and sprinkle with a bit of salt. Place lid on slow cooker and cook, covered, for 3-5 hours on high or for 4-6 hours on low.

Thirty minutes before serving, open slow cooker and sprinkle cheese over the chicken.
Cover tightly and cook for an additional 30 minutes with the slow cooker on high, until the cheese is melty and the salsa is bubbling. (Note: Keep the lid tightly sealed to keep the cheese from drying out or overcooking.)

Serve chicken over rice. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.
