A family favorite. Noodles, rice or mashed potatoes are all that are needed to complete this meal. Great contribution to a pot luck dinner.

Ingredients

3 cloves Garlic, minced

1 Large onion, chopped

1 Large red or green pepper, diced

1 lb. Boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in one inch pieces

2 Large or 3 medium tomatoes, chopped

1 can Kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup Medium salsa

1 bunch Broccoli, cut in florets (optional)

Cilantro

Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Heat 1 tbls. of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet and saute garlic and onion for approximately 3 minutes until soft. Add pepper and saute for 2 minutes more. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil--reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Serve over noodles, rice or mashed potatoes.

Cook's Notes

Control the heat with the salsa. If you like it spicier use hotter salsa, if you like it milder, use mild.

It also works as a great salad. Instead of serving on noodles, add 1 lb. of cooked ditalini or other small pasta and additional salsa to taste.
