This speedy skillet supper from Marcia Lee of Dewitt, New York combines tender cubes of chicken with a variety of vegetables, rice, salsa and seasoning. Try pairing her entree with refried beans or corn bread for fun fiesta fare.
Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
1 package (10 ounces) frozen corn, thawed
1 small green pepper, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup salsa
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1-1/2 cups uncooked instant rice
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
Directions:

Add the rice. Cover and remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Sprinkle with cheese; cover and let stand for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 6 servings.
