Description

Our weeknights are always hectic, how about yours? I'm all about easy, balanced, one-pot meals like this fajita chili made with Knorr® Rice Sides™. You need just 8 ingredients and 30 minutes to whip up this bold & flavorful dish. Simple, right?!

Ingredients
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 1 tablespoon Mexican-style seasoning blend (sodium free)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 red and/or green bell peppers, chopped
  • 1 (32 ounce) carton low-sodium chicken broth, divided
  • 1 (5.6 ounce) package Knorr® Fiesta Sides™ - Spanish Rice
  • 4 cups low-sodium pinto beans and/or black beans, drained and rinsed
  • Sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, lime wedges, tortilla strips
Directions
  1. 1. Season the chicken with Mexican blend. In a large saucepan or Dutch-oven set over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and stir occasionally, until the chicken is cooked, about 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and onions, cook for 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  2. 2. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in same pan, add 2 cups of the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the Knorr® Fiesta Sides™ - Spanish Rice and prepare according to package directions (cover and simmer for 7 minutes).
  3. 3. Stir in the chicken/onion and pepper mix, along with the beans and remaining chicken broth. Bring to a low boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve, if desired, with sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, lime wedges and tortilla strips.
