MEXICAN FIESTA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Sweat onions until soft.
• Add jalopenos, continue to cook for a minute or two.
• Add corn, both beans, tomatoes, salsa, seasonings.
• Cook for about an hour over med/low heat (should just be simmering.) Add cilantro, then taste. Adjust seasoning to your preference.
• Add chicken, simmer until chicken is cooked through.
• serve over brown rice. I personally like to put a tortilla in a bowl, then rice then top the rice. Garnish with cheese and sour cream.

FIESTA CHICKEN AND BLACK BEANS

Steps:

• 1. Heat 1 tbsp. oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with Adobo. Cook chicken, flipping once, until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 5- 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate; tent with foil to keep warm.
• 2. Heat remaining oil in skillet. Add onions and peppers. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in black beans and corn. Continue cooking until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Stir in avocado, lemon juice and cilantro until combined.
• 3. Divide chicken among serving plates; top with black bean mixture. Serve warm.

FIESTA BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly spray a 13 X 9 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Combine salt, cumin, oregano, chili powder, cayenne pepper and garlic powder in a small bowl. Mix well.
• Coat chicken breasts (can be flattened for faster cooking if desired, but will need to alter cooking time) with spice mixture, pressing spices in with fingers.
• Place seasoned chicken in baking dish.
• Remove the seeds from the bell pepper. Cut the bell pepper and onion into 2-3 inch strips.
• Arrange the vegetable strips and olives around chicken. Spoon salsa evenly over veggies.
• Bake until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear; ~20-25 minutes.
• Serve with tortillas and rice.
