Do you ever fight over leftovers in your house? It’s really rare for me to be interested in leftovers at all, because I typically want something different for each and every meal. However, I totally fought to take these Saucy Mexican Chicken Skillet leftovers to work. I’m totally on a one-pan-dinner kick lately. I hate doing dishes, but I love to eat. What’s a girl to do?? Let me give you a few reasons why I love, love, love this Mexican skillet chicken dish: I only have to dirty up ONE PAN. Okay, I know I already mentioned that, but I feel like the importance cannot be understated. Plus I got to use the “Everyday Pan” which came with my new dish set– it’s super easy to clean which makes it even better in my book. It’s healthy! See that creamy sauce? Yep, made with non-fat Greek yogurt. Boo-yah. It’s done in under 30 minutes. That’s pretty much the trifecta of requirements for awesome, delicious, easy weeknight dinner, right? Confession: I have been putting cherry tomatoes on everything lately because they are gorgeous and make everything taste better. I also put some cotija cheese and cilantro on here to kick up the flavor. Squeeze a bit of fresh lime on there to make your mouth extra happy. The second night we had these leftovers, I cooked up some Mexican rice to go with it which was completely awesome. The rice soaked up the sauce and just made a big bowl full of deliciousness. Yep, it happened. I was there.
