Chicken Verde

This is my own little invention for nights when I need something fairly quick and uncomplicated; another non-recipe recipe. It’s a wee bit spicy. This recipe uses bottled Salsa Verde (you could use canned), which is a Mexican green sauce made from tomatillos, cilantro and jalapenos. It is easy to find in our Texas grocery stores but if you live elsewhere , you may have a difficult time locating it. Enjoy! 

Bake boneless skinless chicken breasts in a baking pan with a lip at 350° until done. (I told you it was uncomplicated!) Take the pan out of the oven. Pour some bottled salsa verde (Mexican green sauce) over the chicken breasts, then top each with a slice of pepper jack cheese. Put the pan back into the oven ’til the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top each breast with avocado slices and serve.
