Chicken, salsa, beans, and rice come together to create one heck of an awesome casserole. I like it to have a little kick but you can easily tone down the heat by adjusting the cayenne.
Preheat oven to 375ºF. In a 9×13-inch casserole dish, stir together rice, beans, bell peppers, salsa, chicken stock, and seasonings. Nestle the chicken down into the into the salsa mixture; sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
Cover casserole dish with foil and bake for 45–60 minutes, or until chicken reaches 160ºF. Remove foil and sprinkle cheese all over; return to oven, uncovered, to melt cheese. Garnish with chopped scallions.

This was delicious. I liked it exactly as you listed, but some of the family thought it was too spicy. Next time I will cut the cayenne pepper a bit and substitute cilantro for the scallions at the end. Thank you. This was quick, simple and delicious.
