Mexican Chicken Bake





Created by Isaac.

Here's a quick and easy "Mexican" dish.

  • 1 lb chicken (preferably boneless)
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 1 can beans, drained and rinsed (I use black beans)
  • 6-9 flour tortillas
  • 8 oz shredded cheese
  • 1 jar salsa
  • 1 container sour cream
  • oil
  • chili powder
  • cumin
  • salt & pepper
  1. Cut up the chicken (bite sized) and cook the chicken pieces in oil.
  2. Add chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Add the cans of beans and corn and enough salsa keep it together.
  4. Layer a 9x13 baking dish with aluminum foil (for easy cleanup).
  5. Layer the bottom of the dish with tortillas, then add a layer of the chicken/beans/corn/salsa mix, then sour cream and finally cheese.
  6. Make one or two more layers and then top with tortillas, salsa, sour cream and cheese.
  7. Bake at 350ยบ for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  8. Top with whatever toppings you'd like, i.e. shredded lettuce, fresh tomatoes, olives, chives, guacamole, etc and serve.
