Grandpa Len’s Spicy Mexican Skillet Chicken

  • 1 to 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts halves (about 1 pound)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup frozen whole kernel corn
  • 1/3 cup thick-and-chunky salsa
  • Chopped fresh cilantro, if desired
  1. Mix chili powder, salt and pepper. Sprinkle evenly over both sides of chicken breast halves.
  2. Heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in oil 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until juice is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut.
  3. Stir in beans, corn, and salsa.
  4. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are hot.
  5. Sprinkle with cilantro.
