Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • ½ package Tyson frozen grilled chicken strips (or 2 cups diced cooked chicken)
  • 1 8.8-oz package Uncle Ben's Spanish Style Ready Rice
  • 1 Tbsp canola oil
  • ½ medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp minced garlic (1 clove)
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 16-oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 14.5-oz can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 4-oz can diced green chilies
  • 6 jalapeno rings, finely chopped
  • ½ of a 15.25-oz can corn
  • ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • Chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
  1. Arrange chicken strips in a single layer on a large microwave-safe plate and cook in microwave for 3 minutes. Set aside.
  2. When chicken is done, cook Ready Rice according to package directions for microwave cooking. Remove and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat canola oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is tender and translucent. Add taco seasoning, black beans, diced tomatoes, green chilies, jalapenos, and corn.
  4. Cut chicken into bite-sized chunks and add to black bean mixture, along with the rice. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow skillet mixture to simmer until heated through, about 4 minutes.
  5. Divide into four bowls. Sprinkle each with ¼ of the cheddar and jack cheeses, zapping each in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until cheeses are melted. Top with cilantro.
