Instructions

- OPTIONAL STEP: pulverize chunky salsa with small blender or handheld pulverizing tool.
- Pour salsa over chicken. Use about as much as you think you're gonna need.
- De-stem cilantro and chop. Sprinkle on top of chicken. You can save a little as garnish, but go ahead and use the rest.
