Mexican Chicken and Rice image

Healthy one-pot Mexican chicken and rice skillet with black beans and cheese. An easy, crowd-pleaser recipe for weeknight dinners!

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs, cut into 3/4-inch pieces)
1 small yellow onion (chopped)
2 small jalapenos (or 1 large jalapeno, core and seeds discarded, diced)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 can black beans ((15 ounces), rinsed and drained)
1 cup long or medium-grain brown rice
1 can diced tomatoes in their juices ((15 ounces))
3 medium green onions (chopped)
Optional

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid over medium to high heat. Once hot and shimmering, swirl to coat the pan, then add the chicken, onion, jalapeno, and red bell pepper. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the chicken is browned and the onion is beginning to soften. Add the chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the chicken and cook 30 seconds. Add the black beans and rice. Stir to coat once more.
  • Add the diced tomatoes in their juices and 1 1/2 cups water. Stir to combine the ingredients. Bring to a gentle boil, cover, then reduce the heat and let simmer 30 minutes. Remove the lid and stir, scraping up any rice that has started to stick to the bottom of the pot. Re-cover and continue to let simmer with the lid on until the rice is tender, 10 to 20 additional minutes, stirring the pot every 10 minutes or so to prevent sticking. If the rice begins to dry out, add a bit more liquid.
  • Stir in the green onions. Serve warm with any other desired toppings.

MEXICAN CHICKEN AND RICE



Mexican Chicken and Rice image

On days I get home late from the hospital, I'm glad this main dish comes together easily in one skillet. Sometimes, I make it ahead in the morning and refrigerate. It's so quick to just sprinkle on the cheese and reheat it for dinner.-Cindy Gage, Blair, Nebraska

MEXICAN CHICKEN WITH BEANS AND RICE



Mexican Chicken With Beans and Rice image

This maybe the the best chicken I've ever made. The recipe is very flexible to your tastes. I preferred mine to be spicy but you can easily change to suite your tastes. I love using the Dutch Oven because you don't have to worry about scratching a coating off and the heat is continual and gentle on the food.

Provided by Erv Kosch

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 chicken legs
2 tablespoons canola oil
fajita seasoning mix
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chili beans
1/2 cup salsa
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup long grain white rice

Steps:

  • Start your baking oven preheating to 250 degree Fahrenheit.
  • Heat a Dutch Oven on your stove burner with the Canola Oil over a low flame.
  • Dry 2-3 the Chicken Legs with a paper towel.
  • Coat the Chicken Legs with the Fajita Spice Mix in a pie tin or similar container. The heavier the coating the spicier the chicken.
  • Place the coated Chicken Legs in the Dutch Oven and cover. Brown both sides of the chicken for 3-5 minutes. Don't crowd the chicken or the chicken will burn. Also the Dutch Oven will get hotter as you go so watch your browning time.
  • Remove the browned Chicken Legs and set aside.
  • Repeat the process until all the chicken is browned. You'll need to keep a thin coat of oil on the bottom of the Dutch Oven so add Canola Oil as needed between brownings.
  • Wipe out the hot Dutch Oven with a paper towel to remove the oil and unwanted spices. Leave some extra spice if you want the dish to be hotter.
  • Place the ingredients into the Dutch Oven in this order: Chili Beans, Salsa, Chicken Broth, Long Grain White Rice, and then the Chicken Legs.
  • Cook for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the chicken's juices run clear. Don't peak if your can avoid it.

POLLO A LA CREMA



Pollo a La Crema image

My favorite dish at our local Mexican Restaurant. Chicken, mushrooms & onions in a spicy cream sauce, YUM! Very rich, but so delish! A real comfort food. I have been playing with the recipe for some time, just trying to get close to what they serve. I think I'm finally as close as I can get. 5/30/08 Update: If you can find Mexican Crema (dairy case at my grocer) it is thicker and works better than cream. This is also good served over rice or noodles. ***I discovered that my Paprika had gotten old and lost strength, when I bought new, I also had to reduce the amount. The recipe now reflects the reduced amount.
