Cream cheese makes everything better. Good looking recipe. Taking the time to refrigerate the dish after it seems like it's complete makes a huge difference. I have to make an actual note to do that in the future.I usually throw something together when I'm hungry so this kind of detail gets lost and I get shorted. :)

Sound good and I badly want to try it but I can find any avocados nearby. I think it a seasonal crop. Is there any substitute for it?
Comment #7 Summer (63.176.159.135) -
This sounds really delicious but I was wondering if anyone thinks it would still be good without scallions, olives and avocado slices.

Tejano salsa chicken RecipeIngredients:
4-6 boneless chicken breast (about 3 pounds)
2 cups Tejano salsa (one 16oz jar)
3 cups organic chicken broth (low sodium)
Directions:
In a large pot, bring the low sodium chicken broth and one jar of Tejano salsa to a boil. Add chicken breasts or thighs and reduce heat to a simmer, covered, for 2 hours. After 1.5 hours, if enough liquid remains, add 1/2 cup to one cup of long grain rice and cover - liquid will be absorbed by the rice and you'll have Spanish rice as a side dish. Remove chicken pieces to cutting board, easily shreds with a fork.
Serve a top a taco salad or make a burrito filled with the shredded chicken with rice and refried beans.
An easy and quick-making recipe with many ways to serve.
