Let's prepare a delicious one pan skillet dinner, southwestern style!
1 tablespoon oil
3 or 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thawed
1 packet reduced-sodium taco seasoning
2 cups water
3/4 cup uncooked regular long-grain rice
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained, rinsed
1 cup whole kernel corn
Shredded cheddar cheese
Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Add chicken and cook 3 minutes; turn over and cook 2 to 3 minutes longer until golden brown.
Stir in remaining ingredients except cheese, making sure rice is in water. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover. Simmer about 20 minutes until chicken is fully cooked and rice is tender, stirring once or twice. Sprinkle with cheese; let stand 1 to 2 minutes to melt.
TipS: Instead of taco seasoning, use 1 1/2 tsp. each chili powder and cumin, and 1 tsp. garlic salt. Substitute whatever bean you have on hand for the black beans. Pinto, kidney, or great northern will work just as well. Make burritos! After cooking, shred chicken and spoon rice-chicken mixture into warm tortillas. Serve with salsa, sour cream and fresh lime. Also a perfect way to use leftovers!

Tammy and I have been friends for many years and met here on YouTube! Since then we have met up in real life many times. You will LOVE her tutorials and learn how to decorate cupcakes better than most bakeries do. She lives in Canada, but I really wish she lived next door.
Also check out Jenn of cupcakesandcardio. You will love her as well. tinyurl.com/lahtvfp
Jenn and I have met in real life twice and done some video collaborations together. When we are together, we "get" each other. It is hard to explain to people sometimes what you do and it is nice to be comfy knowing that she also understands everything I am talking about. Oddly enough, she too lives in Canada. I may have to move there soon since such awesome ladies are produced there!
Lastly, smile! I like it when you smile :)
