Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- If chicken breasts are large, cut them in half. Liberally sprinkle Emeril's Southwest seasoning on both sides of chicken and let set while the skillet is heating up.
- Put your olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet (I used an enameled cast iron skillet) over medium heat and let it heat up. Add seasoned chicken breasts and brown on one side for about 4 minutes. Turn chicken over and throw in the jalepeno slices and brown chicken for another 3-4 minutes. Take skillet off the fire and add the tequila and deglaze the pan, scraping up all the good browned bits. Add the salsa.
- Place skillet in oven and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle cheese and green onion over chicken pieces. Return to oven for another 5 minutes.
- Serve over rice (my recipe for Mexican rice is great). Enjoy!
