Easy Southwest Chicken

Easy is good. Tasty easy is better. Lets face it, we don't always have the best of gourmet food at hand, but that does not mean that one can not put together an interesting dish.

Easy Southwest Chicken

  1. In a large frying pan heat black pepper, cayenne pepper, chili powder, and garlic. Once you can smell the spices add a few teaspoons of oil and a slice of onion coarsely chopped. Stir mixture on high heat until blended and oil is hot.
  2. Take four large bone-less, skinless chicken breasts and place in frying pan. Turn quickly to cover with oil and sear each side. Reduce heat.
  3. Combine one can of whole kernel corn, one can of red or pinto beans, and two cups salsa. Pour mixture onto chicken and let simmer covered until chicken is done. You may uncover earlier to help thicken mixture if desired.
  4. Sprinkle with grated white cheddar.
  5. Serve with rice or tortilla chips.
