Southwest Chicken

This recipe comes from my Logan River Neighborhood cookbook.  It comes together really fast and easy on the stove top.  You can eat it just the way it is or you can chop up the chicken and put the mixture in tortillas.  My favorite way to eat it is with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, avocado and sour cream on top.

4 boneless chicken breasts
1 cup salsa
1 pkg. taco seasoning
2 cups water
2 cups Minute rice
1 cup black or kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cup cheddar cheese
Lettuce, tomato, avocado and sour cream for garnish.

Bring chicken, salsa, seasoning and water to boil in a large skillet.  Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.  Return to boil.  Stir in rice and beans.  Sprinkle with cheese.  Cover and cook on low for 5 minutes.  When serving, top with garnishes.  Serves 4-6.
