Verde Chicken Tacos


This is probably one of the best recipes I have ever made and a new family favorite. It was extremely filling, healthy, and delicious. Guy Fieri has a new salsa line out that I have been dying to work with. Yesterday while I was at the grocery store I came across his "Verde Salsa" and knew exactly what I wanted to do with it! Chicken Taco's. But not your ordinary Chicken Taco's, after I cooked the chicken I poured the entire bottle of salsa into the shredded chicken and let it slowly simmer and allow the chicken to soak up the juice from the salsa. Every bit got a little bit better!


Ingredients
3 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 Bottle of Guy Fieri's chicken tacos
1 can of black beans
Flour tortillas
Bag of "taco" cheese
Any other "Taco" toppings you would like. We used tomatoes and avocado

Directions:
In a large pot boil your chicken for approx 45 minutes
Take chicken out and shred
Add to a saute pan and pour in your entire bottle of salsa.
Let simmer for approx 15 minutes.
In another stove top pan- place your entire can of black beans including the juice- Cook till beans are warmed through. 
Pour black beans once cooked, directly into the pan with the chicken and salsa. (You can keep the beans separate if you like)
Warm up your tortillas and then add chicken mixture and any other toppings you would like!
