Southwestern Chicken Goulash



When you are tight on money, my best advice to you is: Look in your cupboards and your fridge and have fun creating something for dinner.

This might not look that great, but it sure tasted good. Plus, it made enough that I was able to eat for a few days and give some to my hungry neighbor.

Ingredients:
1 chicken breast (cut in pieces)
1/2 can corn
1/2 can diced tomatoes
1/2 can black beans
1 c. rice
3/4 c. white wine
3/4 c. water
1/2 c. salsa
1/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
splash oil

Brown chicken in large sauce pot. Remove chicken and place rice in pan. Allow to heat then add wine and water. Allow to boil. Add in tomatoes, corn, black beans, and salsa. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring back to boil and top with chicken pieces. Cover and cook until rice is done. (Around 30 minutes).

Stir and cover with cheese. Heat for another 10 minutes on warm. Then serve and eat.
