I found this in a magazine and thought it sounded good. I plan to try it when I have access to an oven again.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 skinless chicken breasts, filets
2 teaspoons oil
1 (450 g) can refried beans (I like the ones with chilli)
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups prepared salsa
2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno peppers
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200c.
  • Heat the oil in a large oven proof frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning occasionally until cooked through and no longer pink (about 20 minutes).
  • Spoon the beans evenly over the chicken. Sprinkle one cup of cheese over the beans; top with salsa sauce. Sprinkle chopped peppers evenly over salsa. Top with the remaining cheese.
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake until the topping is heated through and cheese has melted (about 15 to 20 minutes)
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream on each portion and a sprinkling of fresh coriander.
