Weeknight dinners don’t get much tastier or easier than this recipe. This dish won’t disappoint when you’re craving south-of-the-border flavors. We recommend serving the bean mixture as a salsa topping for the browned chicken. For variation, you could also make lettuce wraps by cutting the chicken into smaller pieces and spooning both the chicken and bean mixture into crisp romaine leaves before sprinkling the filling with cheese. If you can't find Mexican-style stewed tomatoes, use plain stewed tomatoes with a dash of hot pepper sauce or a spoonful of chopped green chiles. Serve with lime wedges and extra cilantro if on hand.
