Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly spraying it with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Chicken: Lay the boneless, skinless chicken breasts evenly in the prepared baking dish. Generously sprinkle your favorite taco seasoning over the chicken.
  3. Add Veggies: Chop your vibrant bell peppers into bite-sized pieces and distribute them over the seasoned chicken, along with the black beans and corn.
  4. Pour Salsa: Drizzle the salsa evenly over the entire mixture, ensuring to cover everything.
  5. Cheese Layer: Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over the top.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, garnish with fresh cilantro or squeeze some lime juice on top before serving.
