SALSA VERDE HONEY LIME CHICKEN AND RICE BAKE
  • 1 pound chicken breasts, cooked and chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups long grain rice or brown rice, cooked (measured uncooked)
  • 1 16 oz. bottle salsa verde
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 15 oz. sweet corn, rinsed and drained
  • 1 4 oz. can green chilies

  • 10 Minute Marinade
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • dash - 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
  • dash - 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for more heat)

  • Optional Garnishes
  • Tortilla chips
  • Sour Cream
  • Cilantro
  • Avocados
  1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  2. In a very large bowl, whisk together the 10 Minute Marinade ingredients. Add cooked chopped chicken and let marinate 10 minutes.
  3. Mix cheeses together and add 2 cups cheese, salsa verde, rice, sour cream, green chilies, and corn to the chicken and marinade. Stir until evenly combined. It will seem a little “wet” which is normal. Add chicken/rice mixture to a 9 x 13 casserole dish and top with remaining cheese.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes or until hot in the center then broil until cheese is golden.
  5. Serve with desired garnishes.
