I have adapted Easy salsa baked chicken recipe

  • Hi,
    Someone may have posted something similar in the past but here goes:

    Chicken breast browned in a dutch oven.
    When mostly done, take out, cut up chicken and deglaze pot with 1/3 cup salsa & water mix.
    Add chicken back in with cilantro and juice from half a lime.
    Add one can of chopped tomatoes and a 1/2-3/4 cup of salsa- more if you wish.
    Simmer on stove until it reduces a little and thickens..
    Add 2 cups canned black beans, rinsed and drained.
    Top with low fat cheese and bake until cheese is brown and bubbly at 350.

    I use medium heat salsa, and when browning chicken breasts I season with salt, pepper, cumin, and a little cinnamon.

    I believe this is all phase friendly.

    Hope others will enjoy!
