1 package PERDUE® Fresh Turkey Drumsticks
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups water
1 can (14.5 ounce) tomatoes with chilies with juices
1 can (11 ounce) corn, drained

Mexicali Masterpiece
By Elaine | February 13, 2008, 6:43 pm | Jersey City, NJ

I first found this recipe when I was looking for a chicken with rice dish for my Latin American workman. Since then it has become a favorite dish for friends and family. It's easy to put together and makes a great dinner and leftovers can be re=heated and still be tasty. I have also substituted black beans for the corn for a different flavor.
