The other night I was so not in the cooking mood, but after a long day at work my husband still needed a nice home-cooked meal, so I perused the pages of Pinterest, as I usually do when I need something quick and delicious to eat, and found this awesome recipe. It was so easy! I just threw a couple chicken breasts in a pot of bowling water, used my favorite TJ's frozen rice that cooks in the microwave for 3 minutes, then threw it all together and into the oven it went. It really was just that easy! And the best part about it? It's healthy AND tastes good. Winner winner chicken dinner!!!
INGREDIENTS:
2 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 cups cooked brown rice
¾ cups frozen corn
15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup plain greek yogurt (or sour cream)
4 ounce can green chilis
½ cups salsa
1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro for garnish
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for cilantro and mix thoroughly to combine. Make sure the yogurt and cheese are stirred in throughout the entire bowl. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to an oven-safe dish and top with extra cheese if you would like. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
