Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: < 30 minutes

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 2 cups instant rice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 cups defatted reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 can (15 ounce size) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 teaspoons minced jalapeno peppers
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 tablespoons chopped, fresh cilantro
  • 4 lime wedges
  • 1/2 cup mild, medium or hot chunky salsa

Rinse fresh chicken under cold water or remove protective ice glaze from frozen chicken by holding under lukewarm, running water for 1 to 2 minutes. Pat dry.

In large, nonstick skillet, heat olive oil and garlic; add chicken. Cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes (4 to 6 minutes using fresh chicken) or until chicken is lightly browned.

Stir in broth, beans, jalapeno peppers and cumin; cover. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.

Insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. Internal temperature should read 170 degrees F. Stir in rice; cover. Let stand 5 minutes

Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and salsa. Refrigerate leftovers
