  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • salt freshly ground, to taste
  • black pepper freshly ground, to taste

  • 1 cup corn frozen
  • 1 lime
  • 1 cup Colby jack cheese shredded; or cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. If using chicken breasts, slice them in half lengthwise so you have cutlets. Season the chicken with the dried spices, salt, and pepper. 
  2. Add the oil to a large skillet heated over medium-high heat. Place the chicken into the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature is 165° F. Remove the chicken onto a plate.
  3. Lower the heat to medium and add the black beans, Rotel tomatoes, green chiles, corn, lime juice, and cilantro to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper then stir everything together and cook until it’s warmed through. 
  4. Nestle the chicken back into the skillet and top with the cheese. 
  5. Cover the skillet with a lid or piece of foil and cook until the cheese is melted. Top with extra cilantro and serve.
