Southwestern Chicken
Throw 4-6 chicken breasts in a crock pot and cover in salsa. (I use about 3 cups.) Add a can of corn (drained) and a can of black beans (drained). Cook on low all day. About 1 hour before serving, throw in one block of cream cheese and shred the chicken. Serve it over white rice or scoop it into flour tortillas and roll them up like burritos. Completely easy and very tasty!
Layered Mexican Chicken- Weight Watchers

3. Transfer chicken to a large bowl and add beans, sour cream, 1 cup of shredded cheese, chilies, cumin, and pepper; mix well and set aside.
4. Arrange half of tortillas in bottom of prepared lasagna pan, overlapping pieces to cover surface. Top tortillas with half of chicken mixture, layer with remaining tortillas and then top with remaining chicken mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cup of cheese.
5. Bake until filling is bubbly and cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing into 12 pieces. Serve with salsa on the side.

3. Dip chicken in egg whites and then bread crumb mixture, coating both sides.
