Easy Mexican Chicken

If you can rip open a bag and open a can, you're halfway there! This is a go-to for us because it's easy to tweak and we often have the ingredients on hand.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 onion medium, diced
- 1/2 cup frozen corn
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 10-oz can chicken Valley Fresh organic, drained (see note)
- 1 can diced tomatoes drained
- 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
- cheese shredded, optional
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet or cast iron pan. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 - 3 minutes.
- Add corn and cumin and cook for 1 minute.
- Add chicken, tomatoes, and black beans and cook for 4 - 5 minutes with an occasional stir.
- Add cheese and cook to combine for one minute.
- Serve on tortillas, with rice, or on tortilla chips.
Notes
- I typically double the chicken in this recipe and use 2 cans because of our family size (6 people) and because my husband loves meat, but this recipe works fine with 1 can, too.
- Dairy free if cheese is omitted.
- Gluten free if served with gluten-free tortillas, chips, or rice.
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
