.4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa (your choice of heat)
1 (12 ounce) can Diet Coke (DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ON THIS ITEM)
1 lime, juice of, fresh squeezed
Directions:
1In 12 inch skillet, cook chicken over medium high heat in UNSEASONED pan (do NOT spray with PAM or add any oil or butter).
2Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
3Chicken will stick a bit to skillet when turning but that is ok.
4Cook till just brown- you want a bit of color.
5Add the entire jar of Salsa and the can of Diet Coke.
6Reduce heat to medium low- and simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes, covered.
7Remove lid, turn chicken and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened to desired consistency.
8When ready to serve, squeeze juice from 1 fresh lime over the chicken.
9I serve this over yellow rice (I just add turmeric to my rice when cooking- adds nice bright yellow color!).
10Do not use regular Coke as this will turn out too sweet.
11I promise--you cannot taste the Diet Coke.
