This fiesta chicken is probably the most festive weeknight dinner ever. It’s super easy to make, and comes together in under 10 minutes. Now that’s fast!
The secret to this fiesta chicken is a can of black beans, can of corn, taco seasoning and leftover rotisserie chicken. You basically saute everything in a pan until all the flavors combine and you’re done! The flavors of this chicken are beyond incredible, your family will never believe you when you tell them how easy it was to make. Soak up all the compliments and thank me later 😉
To begin, saute onions in about 2 tablespoons oil, until almost golden. Add garlic. 
Then add black beans and corn. 
Taco seasoning…
Shredded rotisserie chicken and cilantro.
Cook for 5 minutes. And that’s it!!! The best most yummiest chicken ever. Serve with a side of rice, veggies, or in burritos.
