Chorizo Chicken Bake

Original Recipe: http://www.mykitchenescapades.com/2012/10/chorizo-chicken-bake.html

Ingredients:


  • 6-8 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 if large, 8 if small)

  • 10 ounce package pork chorizo

  • 4 ounces light cream cheese or Mexican crema

  • 1/2 C light sour cream

  • 10 ounce can chopped tomatoes with green chiles, drained

  • 1/4 C freshly grated parmesan cheese




Directions:


  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Spray a 9x13 glass pan with nonstick spray.  Lay down the chicken evenly in the pan.

  2. In a large skillet, brown the chorizo over medium high heat for about 7-8 minutes.  Add the drained tomatoes, cream cheese and sour cream and mix until it is all blended.  Spread the mixture over the chicken breasts, sprinkle on the parmesan cheese and bake, uncovered for about 45 minutes depending on the size of your chicken breasts.  There will be enough pan juices to serve over some rice if desired.  Or slice the chicken and serve it inside a tortilla topped with your favorite toppings.
