The theme for recipes this month is Salsa, Jelly and Corn. This is the perfect time of year for preserving. Jams, Jellies, as well as Salsa and Chutney are perfect for saving your garden harvest.
Later this month I will chat about canning and preserving, but this first recipe is just a great way to enjoy salsa and corn on a wonderful southwestern chicken. You can make extra to use on pork or beef or tacos.
