Chicken Olé

I was looking for a new way to cook chicken since I got a great buy on chicken tenders. This recipe probably would have been better with freshly cooked tortilla chips--restaurant style. I used generic chips from a bag. I would like to experiment with this recipe. The side dish was awesome. I roasted some vegetables that were seasoned with taco seasoning. Very good!
