Mexican chicken
This recipe uses wonderful pantry staples to create a really tasty and surprisingly easy weeknight dinner that the whole family will love. The delicious creamy sauce comes from the addition of sour cream and the depth of flavour comes from the two convenience products - bottled salsa and taco seasoning mix! Served on steamed rice, why not add some cheeky corn chips on top for a delicious crunch. Not sure how to make a good guacamole? All you need to do is mash the avocado with some lime juice, salt and pepper. If you want a bit of a kick to the guac, add some chopped fresh chilli or dried chilli flakes. Source: kidspot
