Ritz and Cheese Chicken

Ritz crackers, melted cheese, and a creamy sauce...can you go wrong? Not in my book! This dinner hit the spot for a quick and delicious weeknight meal. We gobbled up every last bite. There is just enough flavor from the spices, and the gooey-licious cheese pouring out all over the chicken was to die for! I loved the sauce on top, my hubbs omitted it, so it’s your choice which direction to take this yummy meal!
