- Can I use other types of beans? Yes, you can use any type of beans you like. Pinto beans or kidney beans would also work well in this recipe.
- What can I serve with this dish? This dish is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with rice, quinoa, or a salad for a more complete meal.
- Can I use frozen chicken? Yes, you can use frozen chicken. However, it will take longer to cook, so you’ll need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
