AND
REALLY REALLY easy.
Like you throw everything into the skillet and it cooks in 15 minutes.
From start to finish 15 minutes--crazy!
I'm having it for lunch today :)
Southwestern Chicken and Rice
Serves 6, Prep/Cook time: 15 min.
4 chicken breasts, cut into pieces
1 C salsa
1 packet of taco seasoning
2 C water
2 C Minute rice, uncooked
1 can (15 oz.) black beans, drained

Find the largest skillet you have--preferably one with high sides. Add the salsa, water, onion, taco seasoning, and chicken. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 10 min.

Enjoy!
It looks really good- I would have to figure out the WW points :(
ReplyDeleteDon't fret Nancy!! If you eat "a serving size" which is 1/6th of the recipe and you add 2 Tbsp of light sour cream, 9 points total! If you don't want sour cream, it's 8 points....but trust me, you want the sour cream!!
ReplyDeleteOh..you could also use fat free or 2% cheese...which I did not do...
