Not sure where I got this recipe, but it's a real favorite with my grandkids. I usually make it earlier in the day and then pop it into the oven when ready for dinner.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy salsa. Next time I'll use a milder salsa.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the dish didn't turn out as expected. The chicken was dry and the sauce was too thin.
