Ingredients
2 - 5 oz yellow rice packets (or 1 - 10 oz)2 cans no salt added diced tomatoes2 cans 15 oz black beans, rinsed and drained1 16 oz package frozen sweet corn1 16 oz package frozen green, yellow, and red pepper strips1 can diced green chiles1 medium large onion, chopped1.5 - 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast1.5 Tbsp garlic powder1 Tbsp onion powder1.5 Tbsp Cumin powder.75 Tbsp (or LESS!!!) cayenne pepperOlive oil for simmering (maybe 1 tbsp)
Directions
1. Steam chicken (or cook in some way - I steam mine for 25 - 30 minutes)
2. Make yellow rice according to package directions
3. Simmer onion, pepper strips, and green chiles in olive oil (3 to 5 minutes until onion is translucent)
4. Steam corn in the bag in the microwave (if applicable - just cook frozen corn before adding; if it's canned you can just add it - I don't like canned corn)
5. Add tomatoes, black beans (make sure they are rinsed!), corn, garlic and onion powder, cumin and cayenne
6. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes to let the flavors blend
(Chicken will still be steaming and yellow rice will be just about done)
7. Add yellow rice to the mix of beans, tomatoes, etc
8. Shread chicken and add to the pot
9. Let simmer another 10 minutes
10. Serve in burrito shells, taco shells, with chips, or alone
11. Add salsa, cheese, sour cream, avocado, barbeque sauce - whatever condiments tickle your fancy
12. YUM!
