Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 large chicken breasts (cut in half lengthwise)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Salt & pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 medium onion (chopped)
1 (10 fluid ounce) can Ro-tel diced tomatoes & green chilies (drained)
1 (14 fluid ounce) can black beans (drained & rinsed)
1 (12 fluid ounce) can corn (drained)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup Tex-Mex cheese blend
Fresh cilantro (chopped (optional, to taste))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400F and move the rack to the middle position.
  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you have 4 thinner cutlets. Season both sides with the garlic powder, chili powder, and salt & pepper.
  • Add the oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, add the chicken and cook for about 3-4 minutes/side until lightly golden. Take the chicken out of the pan.
  • Add the onion to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes or until it's softened and lightly browned.
  • Stir in the Rotel tomatoes, beans, corn, and smoked paprika. Let it heat through for a couple of minutes, and be sure to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chicken back in and spoon some of the tomatoes/beans/corn onto the chicken. Sprinkle the cheese over top of everything (I concentrate it on the chicken).
  • Place the skillet in the oven for 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (165F) and the cheese is nice and melty. You can broil the cheese for a few minutes at the end if you want it to be browned.
  • Top with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
