Let's Get Cookin'!: Santa Fe Chicken Video
This dish was DELICIOUS!!! Next time I am going to play with the "heat" by using hot or even medium salsa. Possibly black beans as well as the pintos.
Sorry, reloaded because the sound was totally off. I redid it and I think it sounds better.
Ingredients
* 1 large onion, chopped
* 1 tablespoon butter
* 1-1/4 cups chicken broth
* 1 cup salsa
* 1 cup uncooked long grain rice
* 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
* 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
* 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* Chopped fresh cilantro, optional
Directions

sugarandlance: Another cooking video? Strike one! haha! That does look good. If I lived close to you, I would demand you feed me these things. :P
silverscreamgrl: Careful for those strikes. They get dangerous ;) If you lived close to me, I'd force you to try all kinds of crap lol There would be no demanding.
Dlorezzz: Oh crap !!! Our post office closes at noon on Thursday.. Will have to wait til tomorrow. Darn that was fast.. Thanks Beth
mewpie85: btw i think an egg woulda been tasty in it too :)
brojoghost: are those pet birds or wild birds outside? They do make quite a bit of noise.... haha I might go crazy if they're always like that :p The chicken looks great!
silverscreamgrl: I'd just finished feeding them :) I get about 100-200 birds in the mornings, so it does get to be a bit, but after a while you forget they are even there...become white noise of sorts
anmoose: So you're suggesting that there's a Santa Fe in Hawaii? That's a simple recipe, but made of yum. It's hard to go wrong (unless you burn the rice... LOL). I DO like your idea of adding beans, though I think I'd add them early so they could soak up all the goodies. Odd koinkidink, I was doing a rice dish yesterday, with brown rice (what I normally use), and it got a little "extra brown." And I NEVER burn rice. *grumblegrumble* It must be something that's going around... :-P
GramsandPapi: Yummy!! Thanks, Ang
UnshackledWoman: yum yum yum!
twish1999: Oh yes, this looks nice!
wildheart5: Oh Lord! Does that ever look good!!!
papercuts777: Good call with the beans. I will definitely replicate! Was taking note of the absence of one of the stoves 'rings' and 'crumb catcher deal'.Mine was the opposite with a blown out and MISSING element coil for a few episodes. haha
ninjajessie1: HOLY HELL BALLS that looks so good..i shall try it.
silverscreamgrl: Make sure you use the long grain rice. I found the medium sopped up a lot of the water and was just mush by the time I ate the last of this dish... I made it for my lunches this week. So by today it was like...bleh lol. DELICIOUS thought the very first night. Next time I do it, hotter salsa and long grain rice fro sho
silverscreamgrl: HAHAHA It was there, but doubled up on the back burner. I don't know why I didn't just cover it up. Did you also see the salsa where it splatted out and I didn't quite clean it up? bwahaha
ninjajessie1: I showed william this, he was like HELL YEAH hahaha..
silverscreamgrl: lol And girl, it is SO quick, Doodle won't even be able to THINK of getting into trouble while you get it ready and get it cookin!
ninjajessie1: He said do a clam chowder receipe LMAO, he is now making request !
silverscreamgrl: HAHAHAHAHAHA Unfortunately I don't like seafood much. I think only my mom would eat it...plus she shouldn't, because of the salt content. I bet papercuts777 has either made one or would make one though!!
capergirl1976: Am I having a stroke or did we make this already? This does look delicious....the one I made by the same name (from you I think lol) was sooo yummy and one of my faves. This one will def be made...this weekend I'm thinking : )
silverscreamgrl: I can't remember what the other one was called...nacho chicken, I think? Tottally different, but SOOOOOO GOOD!!!!
NaturalVrouw: That looks SO good... will try it next week with some black beans...
silverscreamgrl: That is how I am doing it next week, for sure. I hope you enjoy it. Spice it up with hot salsa!
silverscreamgrl: You are absolutely fricken right! This was one that I had already done. WTF, right? I told you my memory is horrible!!
capergirl1976: LOL its all good considering how delicious it is it bears repeating in my opinion. The nacho chicken and crunchy/munchy chicken are always to a go to alot and have gotten the thumbs up when serving : )
