1 can corn ( I use one with NO added salt )
1 can black beans ( again low sodium variety )
2 cups shredded Monterey cheese, halved ( I like Kraft 2% )
3 cups water
1 tbsp. butter
1 package Knorr Creamy Chicken Rice & Pasta side
6 chicken breasts
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
Cook your chicken breasts in any method you chose. I chose to put mine in the skillet with a little chicken broth, and my spices above. Set aside.
Make your Knor rice as directed by package. I use 3 cups of water + tbsp of butter vs 2 they recommend because you're going to add your corn and black beans to this mixture. I make sure I thoroughly rinse them before adding because they are packed solution in the can and that's just gross. Roughly it's about 20 minutes on low after a rapid boil.
You're basically going to mix everything together, including half the cheese. Scoop out about a cup of the mixture, place your chicken breast ontop, and top with some of the remaining cheese.
