Calories 328kcal
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Colby jack cheese
Marinade:
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup Less-Sodium Veri Veri Teriyaki Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
- 2 Tablespoons lime juice
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Sauce:
- 1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup light sour cream
- 2 Tablespoons mild salsa
- 1 Tablespoon low-fat 1% milk
- 1 Tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
Pico:
- 6 ounces tomato diced
- 4 ounces white onion minced
- 1 Tablespoon jalapeño diced
- 1 Tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place chicken in a gallon-sized resealable bag. In a small bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients then pour into bag, seal and store in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight).
- Meanwhile, whisk all sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Combine all pico ingredients in a separate bowl. Store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- After chicken has marinated, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a nonstick oven-safe skillet (I use cast iron) over medium-high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Add chicken to the skillet, discarding marinade, and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown on the outside.
- Top the chicken with cream sauce and shredded cheese and place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. Remove from oven and top with pico before serving

Delicious! My new favorite! Served with the black beans for a perfect dinner.
The entire family loved it! 😮💨
RUN DON’T WALK. Fiancé and I LOVED this and went back for seconds. Served with roasted broccoli and brown rice. Total game changer! The only thing I would do next time I make this is brine the chicken first. SO SO GOOD. Will make again!
AMAZING. Definitely on rotation at our house!
