Texas Two-Step Chicken

from Pace Picante Sauce bottle

This recipe is becoming a Weaver favorite. It's very easy, and tastes great. It can be found at the Pace website here, as well as lots of other places online.

Ingredients:

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups Pace® Picante Sauce or Pace® Thick & Chunky Salsa
3 tbsp. packed light brown sugar
1 tbsp. Dijon-style mustard
3 cups hot cooked regular long-grain white rice

Directions:

• Place chicken in 2-qt. shallow baking dish.
  
• Mix picante sauce, sugar and mustard. Pour over chicken.
• Bake at 400°F. for 20 min. or until done. Serve with rice.

Hints from the kitchen:
A couple times, we have cooked the chicken and sauce on top of the rice like a casserole, which adds a nice spice and crunch to the rice. Most of the time, though, the rice isn't ready by then, so we just serve it at the end as suggested.
