Creating Salsa Fresca Baked Chicken is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Season with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Make Salsa Fresca: In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
4. Top Chicken: Spoon the salsa mixture over the seasoned chicken breasts, spreading it evenly.
5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
6. Optional Cheese Topping: If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the chicken during the last 5 minutes of baking. Return to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Rest: Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
8. Serve: Slice the chicken and serve with additional salsa on the side, if desired.
