Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper on both sides.

2

Cook the Chicken

Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from skillet and let rest for a few minutes.

3

Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add sliced onions and jalapeño peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and jalapeños are tender.

4

Assemble the Dish

Slice the cooked chicken into strips and place them in a baking dish. Top with the sautéed vegetables and then sprinkle shredded cheese over the top.

5

Bake

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6

Serve

Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Enjoy your Pollo Fundido!
