Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the chicken, chiles, soup, cheese, onions, salt, pepper and water and pour the mixture into a microwave safe 9x13 inch casserole dish.
• Add the rice. The mixture should be the consistency of soupy pancake batter.
• Cover the dish with a lid or plastic wrap and microwave for about 15 minutes (depending on the microwave). Serve with mexicorn and green salad if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Bring chicken breasts and water to a boil in a large skillet; cook over medium heat until chicken juices run clear and meat is no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken breasts to a large plate, reserving pan juices in skillet, and shred chicken with 2 forks.
• Cook onion and red bell pepper in reserved drippings over medium heat until onion is translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Return shredded chicken to skillet. Stir black beans, corn, picante sauce, chopped green chiles, chili powder, and cumin into chicken mixture until thoroughly combined. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Pour chicken mixture into prepared baking dish.
• Arrange flour tortillas in a single layer over chicken mixture. Stir fiesta soup with diced tomatoes and green chiles in a bowl until thoroughly combined; spread soup mixture over tortillas. Top casserole with Mexican cheese blend.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese topping has melted and casserole is hot, about 30 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, chili powder, salt and paprika. Rub over both sides of chicken. In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, brown chicken on both sides; drizzle with lime juice. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• In the prepared pan, layer half of the chicken, enchilada sauce, sour cream, tortillas, chilis, tomatoes and cheese. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients.
• Cover pan with aluminum foil and bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10 more minutes or until it starts to bubble.

Steps:

• In a large sized zip lock bag, combine marinade ingredients, shake to mix well. Add the chicken and turn to coat on all sides. Refrigerate for at least one hour (the longer the better.).
• Preheat oven to 375. Lightly oil a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the chicken in a single layer.
• On a piece of waxed paper, combine the flour, cornmeal and paprika.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Roll in the cornmeal mixture, coating on all sides. Place in the prepared baking dish and dot with bits of butter.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes or until juices run clear.
