What You Need

small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 lb.)

tsp. TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Taco Seasoning Mix

1/2

lb. red potatoes, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)

3/4

cup KRAFT Mexican Style 2% Milk Finely Shredded Four Cheese

cup TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Thick 'N Chunky Salsa

1/4

cup BREAKSTONE'S Reduced Fat or KNUDSEN Light Sour Cream

Make It

HEAT oven to 400°F.

SPRINKLE chicken with seasoning mix. Place 1/2 cup potatoes on center of each of 4 large sheets of heavy-duty foil; top with chicken, cheese and salsa.

BRING up foil sides. Double fold top and both ends to seal each packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place in 15x10x1-inch pan.

BAKE 30 to 35 min. or until chicken is done (165°F). Cool 5 min. Cut slits in foil to release steam before opening. Top with sour cream.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

For added color and texture, serve with a mixed green salad tossed with your favorite KRAFT Light Dressing.

Cooking Know-How

If the chicken breast halves in your market are larger than 4 oz., they will take longer to cook. Be sure to cook them long enough so that they are done (165°F).

Cooking Know-How

To prevent potatoes from sticking to foil, spray foil with cooking spray or use nonstick foil.

This is one of my family's favorite meals! It's easy, easy clean up & tastes great! My hubby likes a thin layer of onion under the potatoes to give it extra flavor.

Yum!! The potatoes are such a great addition to this, the next time I make it, I'll make an extra side of them!

I made this recipe exactly as written and my whole family loved it, even my 3 year old. Next time I may add some corn on top, besides that I wouldn't change a thing!

VERY good! I sliced the potatoes very thinly (1/8") and put them next to the chicken rather than under it. I drizzled a little olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkled them with a little seasoned salt and put some salsa and cheese on them too. Everything was tender, moist and yummy! The cooking time was exactly right.

I would not add the potatoes. They were very bland and did not seem to cook very well.
