Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
2/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 can (4 ounces) whole green chilies, drained and sliced lengthwise
4 slices Pepper Jack cheese or Monterey Jack cheese

Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Place in a large resealable plastic bag.
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and oil. Set aside 1/4 cup for basting. Pour the remaining marinade over chicken; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
