I had some left over chicken and just wanted something easy to cook. So after raiding my cabinets this is what I made. It actually turned out quite well. The boy did not eat the black beans, he's not a bean eater anyway. The husband really liked it and even took leftovers to work for lunch. I made a crap ton, so you might want to scale down. This made a 9x13 pan of it.
What you need
About 1.5 pounds of chicken, cooked, and cubed (I just bake mine, then pull it off the bone and chop it once it's cooled)
2 Cups Cooked Rice
1 Can Enchilada Sauce
1/4 Cup Chunky Salsa
1 Bell Pepper Chopped
A pinch (or about 1/4 teaspoon) of Cumin
1/2 Can Black Beans
Lots of cheese. whatever kind you like
Preheat Oven to 350. Use a 13x9 Pan. In a large bowl mix first 6 ingredients. Put into pan, cover with foil and bake 15 min (longer if everything was cold). Remove pan. Top with beans, and cheese put back into oven till cheese is melted, about 7 min. Personally I like mine topped with a little sour cream and tomatoes, my husband liked his with just a little sour cream, and the boy liked his plain.
