On days I get home late from the hospital, I'm glad this main dish comes together easily in one skillet. Sometimes, I make it ahead in the morning and refrigerate. It's so quick to just sprinkle on the cheese and reheat it for dinner.—Cindy Gage, Blair, Nebraska

Tasty & fast! I used boneless skinless chicken thighs and substituted the salsa for a can of diced tomatoes w/ green chilies. I also had leftover long grain brown rice, so I eliminated the chicken stock and used my already cooked rice. Great dish!

I was looking for a way to use leftover roasted chicken and found this recipe. My whole family, 18mon old & 6 yr old (who eats next to nothing) included really liked this dish. I added black beans and a whole can of chicken broth so the rice wouldn't be crunchy. I think this is a great way to use leftover chicken and I had everything else on hand so no special shopping trip needed which I really liked!

This was just delicious. So easy to make and tastes wonderful. My husband loved it, especially the added zing with the chili powder. I serve this with fresh breadmaker bread and it is a hit.

Delicious! Kids loved it and it was even yummy with severe morning sickness! I made brown rice with a cup of chicken broth & only used 1/2 cup of salsa to compensate.

We made it with regular rice (steamed in another pot) and a tomato in place of the salsa (so it wouldn't be so saucey with the pre-cooked rice). Turned out good.
