Southwest Chicken Bake

Super easy, super yummy and fairly inexpensive to make. This is hearty and when served with rice it is super high in complete protein.

Here is what you need:

1.5 lb boneless chicken breasts
1 Onion
Taco Seasoning Packet
1 Can Black Beans
1 Can Corn
1/2 C Salsa
Shredded Cheese (about a cup or two)

Cooked Rice or Corn Chips to serve over it. I like mine with sour cream too :)

Dice the onion, and brown it in a little oil in a skillet or pan. Then cube the chicken, and brown it with the onions. After it is not pink anymore add everything except the cheese and the rice or chips. Simmer covered on low for 40ish min. If the mixture gets too thick, add some water. Stir frequently.

After the 40-ish min (which gives the flavors time to meld) Top with cheese and put the lid back on till it is melted. Or you can put it in the oven in a baking dish and brown the cheese (who really wants another pan to wash though? Not me!) So the stove top works really well!

Eat and enjoy!
