A comforting and hearty dish combining tender chicken, creamy textures, and spices, perfect for family dinners or meal prep.

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 cups water or chicken broth
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 (15 oz) cans of black beans, drained
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 15 oz creamed corn (with juices)
  • 1 cup salsa (Rotel or diced tomatoes)
  • 2 small diced jalapeños (or 1 Tbsp of chopped pickled jalapeños)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • 1/3 cup creamy ranch dressing
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cut into fours

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: In a large pot, add the chicken breasts and cover with water or chicken broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  2. Shred the chicken: Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  3. Sauté the vegetables: In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir regularly to prevent sticking.
  4. Combine the ingredients: Add the black beans, creamed corn, salsa, jalapeños, chili powder, and cayenne pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add the creaminess: Place the shredded chicken back into the pot, along with the ranch dressing, heavy cream, and cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  6. Heat through: Continue to cook over medium-low heat for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Notes

For added flavor, consider garnishing with fresh cilantro or green onions. Adjust spice levels to taste by adding more or less jalapeño.
