A quick, inexpensive tasty meal - perfect for after a work day. It's even faster if you have leftover cooked chicken and rice to use. Another recipe from my mother-in-law.

I like to serve this dish with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.

I've made this recipe with chicken breasts and chicken thighs, and both work well. I think I prefer the chicken thighs because they're a little more flavorful.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make a big batch of chicken on the weekend, and then I use it to make this dish during the week.

I made this recipe in my slow cooker and it turned out great! I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I didn't have any black beans, so I used pinto beans instead. They worked just as well.

This recipe was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.
