Directions:
In a 12" nonreactive skillet, heat the oil over med. high heat. Add the chicken, onion, jalapeno pepper & the garlic. Cook, stirring to break up the
meat, until chicken has lost all trace of pink & the veggies are softened, about 7 minutes.

Drain off excess fat from pan. Stir in the rice, tomatoes with their juices, tomato paste, chicken broth, chilies, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes.

Stir in beans & corn and continue cooking, covered, until the beans and corn are heated through,
3-5 min.

Just before serving, stir in the cheese. Top with sour cream and salsa. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro before serving.


Notes: I have used ground beef and chopped chicken breasts instead of ground chicken.
