1 Pan Chicken Mexican Fiesta

  • 1-3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
  • 2-3 tsp Three Amigos Seasoning (or other healthy taco seasonings – see below for homemade)
  • Dash of Sea salt & pepper
  • 2 bell peppers in assorted colors, deseeded and sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 1/2 can black beans, drained
  • 1/2 cup organic corn

Add some oil to a fry pan on medium-low. Add the chicken and sprinkle the seasonings over the top. Saute them until the chicken is almost done. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Optional step: Place a little oil in the pan and add the corn. Fry it until the corn is nicely roasted, a little brown. Remove and set aside.

Add your sliced onions and peppers to the pan. Drizzle the olive oil over the peppers and onions and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until the peppers are done to your likeness.

Add the chicken, corn and black beans and saute until heated through, stirring often.
