Preparation
1
Cook rice

  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, broth concentrate and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high. 
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.

2
Prep

  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with Mexican Seasoning and salt. 

3
Start chicken

  • In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high.
  • When hot, add chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook for 2-3 min per side, until golden.
  • Transfer chicken to an 8x8-inch baking dish (9x13-inch for 4 servings). Set aside. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 5.)

4
Cook veggies

  • Reheat the same pan over medium. 
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then peppers and corn. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until tender.
  • Add salsa and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Stir to combine. 

5
Assemble and bake

  • Pour salsa-veggie mixture over chicken. Sprinkle cheese over top. 
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-10 min, until chicken is cooked through.**

6
Finish and serve

  • Fluff rice with a fork. 
  • Divide rice between plates, then top with cheesy chicken bake. 

7

If you've opted to get chicken thighs, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook chicken breasts.
