I was looking for an easy and quick oven baked chicken recipe and found this online... It was ridiculously easy and insanely delicious! I just had to share it... enjoy! Ingredients:
4 chicken breast halves |
salt and pepper or spicy seasoning |
1 (16 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed |
1 (12 -15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained |
2 cups chunky salsa, divided |
1 (4 ounce) can mild green chilies (optional) |
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped and divided |
1 1/2 cups mexican blend cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°. Lightly grease a 2-quart casserole or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Wash chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle the chicken all over with salt and pepper or a spicy chicken seasoning blend.
3. Combine the drained beans, corn, 1 cup of the salsa, green chile peppers, and half of the cilantro. Put the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Arrange chicken over the bean and corn mixture, then spoon the remaining salsa over the chicken. Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro and top evenly with the cheese.
4. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 10 minutes, or until chicken is tender and juices run clear.
