Expert Tips

Crisp tortilla strips add extra crunch and are easy to make - just pop them in the oven while preparing the skillet. Bake strips on ungreased cookie sheet in 425°F oven 4 to 7 minutes or until crisp.

Add orange wedges or pineapple chunks to quickly finish this meal.

I made this last night. It was really good. I used all fresh ingredients because I didn't find them frozen. I also used quite a bit more salsa than they suggest. I love salsa. I stuck a tortilla in the microwave for 10 seconds and stuffed it full of chicken skillet goodness. Yum. It made enough for about 5 meals. So I divided up the rest and put it in the freezer. Lunch for the rest of the week!

hmm, I took the red bell peppers out (southwestern food doesn't usually have bell peppers in it, I should know living in New Mexico) and added green chiles... made it very good...
