Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken breasts in a greased baking dish.
  4. Top each chicken breast with queso dip and shredded cheese.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Notes
