I'm addicted to black beans so was anxious to try this recipe that I found in a Junior League cookbook. We loved it, it's an instant family favorite!
Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped green pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chicken broth
2 (28 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (or more to taste)
2 cups medium salsa
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
shredded cheddar cheese (optional) or monterey jack cheese (optional)
Directions:
1. Simmer the chicken, onion, green pepper and garlic in the 2 tablespoons of broth in a stockpot until the chicken is cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
2. Add the tomatoes, black beans, salt, hot sauce, salsa, chili powder and cumin; mix well and simmer 30-45 minutes.
3. Serve with shredded cheese, if desired.
