Chicken Fiesta Bake

Author Amber Brady
Yields 6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 16 oz jar medium salsa, (I prefer the "fresher" refrigerated salsas)
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 15 oz can corn, undrained
  • 15 oz can black beans, drained & rinsed
  • 1 cup of long grain white rice
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 2-3 chicken breasts, sliced in half width-wise to make 4-6 chicken breasts (I recommend doing 3 breasts cut in half because it's a lot of rice mixture.)
  • Cajun or Taco Seasoning
  • ½ cup + medium cheddar cheese
  • Green onions, diced

Instructions

  • Grease a 9x13" pan with cooking spray. Dump salsa, water, corn, beans, rice, & salt into the pan. Stir together.
  • Place chicken breasts on top. Season generously with cajun or taco seasoning.
  • Bake at 375˚F for 45 minutes or until chicken is done. Sprinkle with cheese & return to oven for 3-5 minutes or until cheese melts. Top with freshly chopped green onions.
