Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Chicken
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken pieces and cook until they’re golden brown and cooked through (about 7-8 minutes). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
Step 2: Sauté the Veggies
- In the same skillet, toss in the onion, garlic, and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they’re tender and fragrant.
Step 3: Add the Flavor
- Add the cooked rice, corn kernels, and spices (paprika, cumin, chili powder) to the skillet. Stir everything together to combine.
- Toss the cooked chicken back into the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
Step 4: Garnish & Serve
- Once everything is heated through, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Serve with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime, and any extra toppings like sour cream, cheese, or avocado.
