  • 8

Ingredients

  • 3 c chicken broth
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 oz) can corn, drained
  • 1-1/3 c uncooked whole-grain brown rice
  • 2 c shredded Monterey Jack cheese with peppers, divided
  • 1 (10-3/4 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 c sour cream
  • 1/2 c salsa verde
  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (I just used canned chicken)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º. Spray a 13x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a small saucepan, heat chicken broth.

In a large bowl, combine beans, corn and rice. Add hot chicken broth, 1 c cheese, soup, sour cream, and salsa, stirring to combine. Stir in chicken. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.

Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Top with remaining 1 c cheese, and bake for 15 - 25 minutes longer, or until center is set and cheese is golden brown.
