Instructions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a 12″ skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until starting to soften, then add the bell pepper and sauté for another minute or so. Add the ground chicken and cook until it’s no longer pink (at least 5 minutes). Break it up into smaller pieces as it cooks.

Step 2

Stir in the rice, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken broth and all the dried herbs/spices. Be sure the ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Bring to a simmer, cover, then turn heat down to low. Cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking. Add more broth if you find it’s getting too dry for your taste. It’s done once the rice is cooked to your liking! Serve immediately with your chosen garnishes.
