Cooking Steps
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To a medium pot, add 1 cup (2 cups) water, broth concentrate and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add rice to the boiling water, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-15 min.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with Mexican Seasoning and salt.
- In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high. When hot, add chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook 2-3 min per side, until golden.
- Transfer chicken to 8x8-inch (9x13-inch) baking dish. Set aside.
- Reheat the same pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then peppers and corn. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until tender.
- Add salsa and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Stir to combine.
- Pour salsa-veggie mixture over the chicken. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake chicken in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 8-10 min.**
- Fluff the rice with a fork.
