Suggestions for this Easy Chicken Casserole
Cook the chicken breasts in the Crock pot in the enchilada sauce, green chiles, cumin and pepper. The chicken will be so flavorful by the time you add it with the rest of the ingredients.I like to use calrose rice for this dish, because the medium grains cook up a bit more sticky and can be pressed into layers better. But if you only have long grain white rice on hand, it’ll work great too!Black beans are delicious in this recipe but you can easily swap them out for pinto or kidney beans.Top this yummy casserole with tomatoes, sour cream, green onions, even crushed Doritos or corn chips.
