Ingredients:

  • 1 (16 oz) jar salsa
  • 1 (15 1/4 oz) can corn (add the drained liquids in with the 2 cup hot water)
  • 1 1/3 cups white rice
  • 2 cups hot water
  • 1 (1 1/4 oz) packet taco seasoning
  • 3 chicken breasts , cut into strips

Directions:

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 375*.
  2. 2. In the bottom of a 9x13 glass baking dish, combine the rice, water, taco seasoning packet, 1/2 the jar of salsa and 1/3 can each of the beans and corn. Gently stir to combine.
  3. 3. Lay the chicken pieces over the rice mixture.
  4. 4. In the half-filled salsa jar, sprinkle in a little of the extra corn and beans, then re-lid & shake to combine. Pour over top of the chicken pieces.
  5. 5. Cover with foil & bake 35-40 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
  6. 6. Let stand 5 minutes uncovered before eating.
  7. Serve with sour cream if desired. I used the extra corn and beans to make a black bean & corn salsa to serve as a side dish.
