Great go-to recipe. Put the flour and taco seasoning in a bag and "shake" chicken pieces. Use chicken tenders which are already the right size. Quick, easy and super delicious!

I added some extra veggies (carrots, peppers, and celery)and a can of rinsed black beans. I mixed stewed tomatoes with the salsa to cut back on some of the heat. It was so good. This is a great way to use up bits and pieces of veggies.

Easy & very flavorful. I followed a few suggestions and added an onion, black beans, entire packet of seasoning mix, 1/2 cup chicken broth(some said it was a little dry) & a little garlic. Topping with green onions and cilantro was a nice touch and added to the dish. Definitely a keeper!
