Southwest Chicken Wonton Cups:

Ingredients:

1 pound chicken breasts, boneless, skinless and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 envelope reduced sodium taco seasoning
1 onion, chopped
1 (16 ounce) jar low sodium salsa, divided
1 (8 ounce) package low fat cheddar cheese, divided
36 wonton wraps

Instructions:

Spray a large skillet with a nonstick cooking spray and place over medium heat. Place the chicken into the skillet and sprinkle the taco seasoning over the chicken. Stir slightly to coat the chicken. Cook the chicken 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until juices run clear. Place the cooked chicken into a mixing bowl. Add the onion to the chicken and toss. Pour in half of the jar of salsa and half of the package of cheese. Stir well to combine. Bring the oven temperature to 375 degrees. Coat the cups of a mini muffin tin with a nonstick cooking spray. Press the wonton wraps into each of the cups. Place the cups into the oven and bake 4 minutes or until a light golden brown. Remove the cups and fill each one with the chicken mixture. Top each cup with the remaining salsa. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on each cup. Bake 8 minutes or until heated through and the cheese has melted completely.
