I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this recipe was still really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the salsa was mild enough for me to enjoy.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some rotisserie chicken and it was delicious. The salsa is also a great way to use up leftover avocados.
