Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of wax paper. With a meat mallet or the side of a cleaver, pound to 1/4" thickness.
2.
Coat a 10" no-stick skillet with no-stick spray and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken. Cook for 2 minutes. Turn the pieces. Add the stock and bring to a boil.
3.
Add the onions, carrots, tomatoes, garlic, salsa, and pepper. Cover and cook for 3 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. Check by inserting the tip of a sharp knife into 1 piece. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Cover and cook for 1 minute, or until the Parmesan starts to melt.
