Notes

This recipe will also work well with chicken thighs.
Be sure to use ranch seasoning and not ranch dip mix. The ranch dip has quite a bit more sodium than the seasoning and the result will be pretty salty.
We love our restaurant style salsa here, but any jarred salsa you like will work fine. We've also used just canned diced tomatoes and it's delicious as well.
