Googled “chicken, black beans, and salsa,” and this recipe was a few down on the list. We made it with hot salsa, and we loved it! One dish – super easy! Adding this keeper to our meal rotation! Thank you!!!

am embarrassed to admit i am confused on the ingredients written:
“1 1.3 lb package chicken breasts ($2.32) Other chicken cuts would totally work!
1 1/2 cups salsa” —- 11 pounds of chicken or 1 pkg of 1.3 pounds AND 1.5 cups salsa or a half cup salsa.

very new to cooking dinner for non-toddlers and loving your site, your ideas, planning. keep it coming………. maybe i’ll be able to flow one day and not be so dumb.

My husband went nuts over this dish last night. I smothered it in cheddar cheese & he ate tortilla chips with it. He told me this recipe was a keeper! Thanks!

This is great. Imagine if the chicken breasts were on sale… you could probably make it for even less than $5. I’m always a fan of thighs and legs – the are also a really good deal.

@becky, Yes, cutting the chicken would likely cut the cooking time in half. If using tenderloins, it would probably only take 25-30 minutes to bake at 350. And so glad he enjoyed the chicken bake!

I am wondering if you could dice the chicken first to speed up cooking time? Or would chicken cook through before beans have warmed through? Hmm…what about tenders??? not a big deal, I’m SOO making this tonight!!
Btw, the chicken taco bake was a HUGE success with my husband. He ate it on chips with cheese…nacho style in the oven probably 5 nights until it was gone!
