I found this on a site called Beyond Diet. I of course changed the recipe to fit the cost of under two dollars and  still be able to offer a nutritious meal.

I have been making something like this for years and until I saw it on their site I guess I never gave it a though to include it on my blog.

Here is the recipe:

·        Prep Time: 5 minutes

·        Cook Time: 25 minutes

·        Servings: 2

·         

Ingredients

1 ½  Tablespoons flour
½  teaspoon chili powder
½  teaspoon dried parsley flakes
2  skinless boneless chicken breast, cut into 4 pieces
1 (one 8 ounce can)  tomato sauce
¼  cup chunky salsa (mild, medium or hot)
½  Tablespoon sugar (or sweetener of choice)

Directions

Combine flour, chili seasoning, and parsley flakes.

Coat chicken pieces in the flour mixture.

In a large skillet with  oil (1 Tablespoon), brown chicken for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

In a large bowl, combine tomato sauce, salsa, sugar and any remaining flour mixture.

 Mix well then spoon sauce mix evenly over chicken.

Lower heat, cover...and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is tender.

When serving, spoon the rest of the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts. 

This is a nice change of just chicken and sauce it brings a new diminution to this meal.

Enjoy!
