Cheesy Chicken and Rice Bake

Source: Tasty Kitchen

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 5

Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
4 cups cooked brown rice (I used white because that's what I had, but I'm sure brown would be delicious ... and healthy)
3/4 cup frozen corn (I just used a can of corn)
1 15 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 4 oz can diced green chiles
1/2 cup salsa
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I used sour cream ... yeah, I'm apparently not the most healthy eater ever ;)
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tablespoons fresh, chopped cilantro, for garnish

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for cilantro and mix thoroughly to combine. Make sure the yogurt (or sour cream, if you don't care about fat) and cheese are stirred in throughout the entire bowl. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to an oven-safe dish and top with extra cheese if you would like. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

Notes:
This was a yummy, easy dish to put together.  And while it wasn't super saucy (actually it wasn't really saucy at all) Gregg said he liked it.
