Ingredients
- 1 pound diced chicken breasts, 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 medium diced onion, about 1 cup
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 2 cups cooked rice, any variety
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can drained black beans
- 1 (10-ounce) can enchilada sauce
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 5 large bell peppers, any color
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray two 9x13-inch pans with non-stick cooking spray.
- Heat half of the 2 tablespoons olive oil, in a large saucepan. Add in the 1 pound diced chicken breasts, and cook for 5-6 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- To the same pan add the remaining oil along with the 1 medium diced onion, and cook for 3-4 minutes or until the onions are tender. Add in the 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Stir in the 2 cups cooked rice, 1 cup frozen corn, 1 (14.5-ounce) can drained black beans, 1 (10-ounce) can enchilada sauce, 1 teaspoon cumin, ½ teaspoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon chipotle chili powder, and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Stir to combine then add in the cooked chicken.
- Mix and cook everything together until combined and heated through.
- Remove the stem, cut each 5 large bell peppers, in half, and arrange pepper halves on the prepared baking pans.
- Stuff about 1/2 cup of the chicken and rice mixture into each pepper half. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until the peppers are tender.
- Serve immediately with cilantro for garnish and diced peppers for color (I used the tops of the peppers).
