Report
This chicken breast skillet couldn’t be any simpler and satisfying. The chicken is lightly dusted with flour and Lawry’s seasonings giving the chicken a juicy, tender, and delicious flavor. Combined with colorful bell peppers, a slight hint of spice from jalapeños, roasted corn, and tangy lime – this dish has authentic flavors of Mexico and can be made is less than 30 minutes.
