Add 1-1/2 cups tomatoes; stir. Cook 5 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup cheese.

Keeping it Safe

Cutting boneless skinless chicken breasts into pieces can be a slippery task. Make it safer and prevent the knife from slipping by cutting the chicken while it is partially frozen. The firmer chicken is much easier to cut and handle.

 

Special Extra

Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
