Salsa Chicken aka Mexican Chicken

I have been asked 2 times in the last week for this recipe by family members. I got the recipe from my old coworker Susan. Her daughter & her friends made up a cookbook & Susan printed me a copy. It’s just on regular paper with a binder clip. It has so many good recipes, this won’t be the last you hear of recipes from this collection.

4 chicken breast- cubed, but not cooked (honestly I usually use 2 because we have the Costco size boneless skinless chicken at our house. My mom used canned chicken the other night & said that was just fine too)

1 c salsa

2 c cooked rice

1 c black beans- drained

1/2 pkg taco mix

2 c water

 

Bring chicken, salsa, taco mix & water to a boil. Cover & simmer for 10 minutes. Return to a boil. Stir in rice & beans. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover. Cook on low for 5 minutes. Top with sour cream,  guacamole, lettuce, tomato & serve with chips.

When we eat this, we don’t even put utensils on the table, we just use chips for our “forks”. Everyone in our family loves this.
