Description

Seasoned chicken breasts topped with creamy queso dip create a dish that’s both simple and satisfying.


Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup queso dip
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Olive oil (optional)
  • Chopped cilantro for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and top each with queso dip.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil if desired.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped cilantro if using, and serve warm.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
