Steps
- To prepare Mexican Salsa Chicken With Italian Cream Cheese Recipe,
- Wash the chicken thoroughly and to marinate it, in a mixing bowl, combine the chicken with salt, black pepper powder and rock salt.
- Prepare the salsa by grinding together tomatoes, cilantro leaves, chopped onions, lemon juice, garlic pod, sugar, salt and whole jalapeno in a mixer jar until coarsely ground.
- Add this salsa mixture to the marinated chicken.
- Heat a pan on medium flame and add butter to it.
- Add the chicken along with salsa and cook covered for about 20 minutes or till the chicken is cooked.
- Heat another pan to prepare cream cheese sauce. Add butter to melt on medium flame.
- Add garlic and sauté. Add cream cheese to butter and garlic.
- Add milk and stir it well. Keep whisking to avoid lumps. Adjust salt if required. (Cream cheese is usually salted)
- Once the sauce has thickened, whisk and remove from heat.
- In another Kadai, boil the penne pasta al dente. Drain and keep aside. Just to make this a heavy meal, I added pasta. It is purely optional though.
- Once the chicken is grilled and cooked, place the chicken on a baking tray.
- Add penne pasta and pour the cream cheese sauce over the chicken.
- Sprinkle some mozzarella cheese, chopped parsley leaves and freshly crushed black pepper on the top.
- Bake it in oven for 10-15 minutes at 180 degree Celsius till the cheese has melted.
