Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken thighs
3/4 cup salsa verde
Monterey Jack
1 sliced jalapeno
1/4 cup sour cream

Method

PREP

Season 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 lb) and set in a baking dish; cover with 3/4 cup salsa verde and 1 sliced jalapeno.

COOKING

Bake at 400F for 25 minutes to 165F.
Top with 1 cup (4 oz) shredded Monterey Jack and return 5 minutes to melt.

FINISH

Swirl in 1/4 cup sour cream, finish with cilantro, and serve. Serves 2 — two thighs per plate.

💡 Pro-Tip: Nestle the thighs skin-up above the salsa line so the tops brown while the sauce keeps the meat underneath juicy.
