Southwest Chicken Cups
This meal is very kid-friendly and easy to make. I love serving little individual foods like this because it just seems fancy and fun! Put 4 or more on a plate alongside a nice green salad for a complete meal.
1 pound chicken breasts, boneless, skinless and diced small
1 envelope taco seasoning
1 onion, diced small
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa, divided
1 (8 ounce) package Cheddar cheese, divided
36 wonton wraps
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Spray a large skillet with a non stick cooking spray and place over medium heat. Put chicken in the skillet and sprinkle the taco seasoning over the chicken, stirring slightly to coat.
Cook the chicken in the skillet for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken in cooked through. Remove chicken and put in a large mixing bowl.
Add the onion, and half of the jar of salsa and half of the package of Cheddar cheese to the chicken and stir well to combine.
Coat the cups of a mini muffin tin with a non stick cooking spray. Press the wonton wraps into each of the cups. Place the muffin tin into the oven and bake 3 to 5 minutes or until wontons are a light golden brown.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then fill each cup with the chicken mixture. Top each cup with the remaining salsa, then with the remaining Cheddar cheese.
Put back in oven for 5 to 8 minutes or until heated through and the cheese has melted.
