Chicken Fajita Chowder

(All the Ingredients Needed!)

PREP TIME:  15 Min.     COOK TIME:  45 Min.

Ingredients:

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts (I used 3 breasts) 

1 each medium sweet red & yellow peppers (you can add green as well) 

1 medium yellow onion

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cups water

2 cups frozen yellow corn

1 cup uncooked brown rice (I used one boiling bag) 

1 cup salsa verde (can use green enchilada sauce)

1/4 cup chopped green chilies

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup (4 oz) shredded Fiesta Blend Cheese

1 cup (8 oz) plain Greek yogurt  

LET'S START COOKING! 

• 1st chop up the peppers & onions.  Combine them in a bowl.

 

• Chop the chicken breasts.  (it's easiest if you have kitchen scissors!)
• In a large pot (which you have a lid for), COOK and STIR the chicken, peppers & onions in olive oil until vegetables are tender-crisp.
• STIR in the water, corn, rice, salsa verde, green chilies & salt.  Bring to a BOIL.

 

• REDUCE heat; cover & SIMMER for 35-40 mins. (make sure rice is tender)
• REMOVE from heat.
• STIR in cheese & yogurt until cheese is melted.
