One Pan Cilantro Lime Chicken And Rice With Black Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet (the pan size is very important) over medium-high. Brown the chicken on both sides to give it good color, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Add the onion and bell peppers to the pan and sauté until just starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a small saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Meanwhile, add the Fresno chiles or jalapeños, cinnamon, garlic and cumin to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, then add the black beans and cherry tomatoes. Season generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the rice on top in an even layer. (It's important that the black beans are beneath the rice and chicken. The rice will burn otherwise.) Add the stock and return the chicken to the pan, skin-side up.
• Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes. The chicken should be lovely and golden, the stock should be absorbed and the rice should be tender. Sprinkle with the cilantro. Serve with lime wedges, pickled chiles, sliced fresh chiles, sour cream and avocado (squeeze some lime juice over the avocados in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper).

Steps:

• In a skillet, heat a small amount of oil on medium-high heat. Add chicken and season with salt and pepper.
• Cook the chicken thoroughly, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Add remaining olive oil to the skillet. Add onion and peppers and sauté for 5-7 minutes.
• Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
• Add the chicken broth, lime juice, black beans, tomatoes, rice, salt, and pepper and stir to combine.
• Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until rice is cooked through.
• Add chicken back to the pot. Add cilantro and combine.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and saute until cooked through, about 6 minutes, adding in lighter portions of the green onions and garlic at last 1 minute of cooking. Stir in broth, green onion greens, green chilies, lime zest, lime juice, black beans and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring mixture to a boil, add rice, fully immerse rice in broth, and allow to boil 20 seconds, then remove from heat and immediately cover with a lid. Let rest 5 - 6 minutes.
• If needed, return pan to medium heat and cook and toss 1 minute to allow rice to absorb excess moisture. Remove from heat, toss in cilantro and let rest uncovered 3 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the stock, cover and bring to a boil.
• Add the salt, rice and beans (including the liquid). Stir just to combine, then cover.
• Turn the heat down as low as it will go, then let simmer, undisturbed, for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 4 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper, then garnish with lime or cilantro as you wish.
