    Starting off a new series of healthy recipes to help me prepare for my upcoming cruise. First up, this delicious Mexican style chicken.

    Ingredients

    • 16 ounces chicken breasts, trimmed boneless, skinless
    • 2 teaspoons Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning
    • Olive oil spray
    • 4 tablespoons enchilada sauce
    • 1 cup light monterey jack cheese
    • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
    • 15 ounce can ranch style black beans

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
    2. Beat and tenderize the chicken! (a reminder for myself)
    3. Season each chicken breast evenly on both sides with the southwest seasoning.
    4. Place a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over high heat. When hot, lightly mist with the olive oil spray and add the chicken. Cook, turning once, 2 minutes per side, or just until the chicken is golden brown on the outside.
    5. Remove the pan from the heat and top each chicken breast with 1 tablespoon of the enchilada sauce, one-fourth of the cheese and one-fourth of the cilantro.
    6. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 6 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the cheese is melted.
