Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast tenderloins
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 poblano pepper, sliced thin
- 1 red pepper, sliced thin
- 1 small onion, sliced thin
- 15 ounce canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- 15 ounce canned corn, drained
- 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning
- 1 tablespoon oil
Optional toppings

Preparation
Preheat a large skillet to medium-high heat and add oil. Season chicken, onions, and peppers with half of the fajita seasoning.
When skillet is hot, add the chicken, peppers, and onions. Cook 3-4 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through. Transfer chicken and vegetables to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
To the same skillet, add corn and black beans with the remaining fajita seasoning. Cook, stirring frequently, until warmed through.
Fill bowls with rice, then top with chicken, onions, peppers, corn, and black beans. Add additional toppings as desired, like sour cream, salsa, avocado and a squeeze of lime.
Notes
For the rice, you can use anything you like: steamed white or brown rice, Mexican rice, and Cilantro Lime rice are our favorites.
