Cheesy Chicken and Rice Bake

 

Need something simple and quick? This is just the ticket.  If you have instant rice and pre-cooked shredded chicken, it’s REALLY fast and easy.  Of course, anything with cheese is good and the can of chilies really adds a nice flavor.

Ingredients:

  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 4 cups cooked rice (instant or regular, brown or white)
  • ¾ cups frozen corn
  • 15 ounce can black beans, drained & rinsed
  • 1 cup plain Greek Yogurt or sour cream
  • 4 ounce can green chilies
  • ½ cup salsa
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese plus more for topping (I used a little bit more)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro for garnish (I omitted)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except cilantro.  Mix thoroughly to combine.  Make sure the yogurt and cheese are stirred in through the entire bowl.  Season with salt & pepper if desired (I didn’t).
  3. Transfer to a greased 9×13 dish.
  4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through.
  5. Garnish with chopped cilantro and cheddar cheese.
