It was good, but dry.  I probably would not make it again.

Read the above review, so I sautéed sweet onion with a red pepper. Added green chili’s. It’s an ok recipe. I will add seasoning if I cook again.

I gave this three stars because it seemed to be needing a little extra something. I seasoned the chicken with mrs. dash, a teaspoon of chile powder & fresh garlic& I cut up red, orange and yellow pepper to add some crunch, baked everything together instead of adding the peppers at the end. I found that the cheese seemed to burn instead of mix in, i think next time i’ll use about half can of cheddar soup (i think it was missing the cheesiness that most mexican dishes employ) and it would make the consistency a bit thicker. My brother and dad treated this dish more like a dip rather than a main dish; I served with baked tortilla’s, they loved it as is, but next time I’ll put the cheese on after baking/add maybe half can of cheddar soup.
