Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. Stir in the diced bell peppers, paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers start to soften.

  4. Add the rice to the pot and stir to coat with the spices and vegetables.

  5. Pour in the canned tomatoes (with their juices) and chicken broth. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  6. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed.

  7. Stir in the frozen corn and black beans, allowing them to heat through for another 2-3 minutes.

  8. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

  9. Serve the one-pot meal hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice on top. Enjoy!
