Chicken and Black Bean Fajita Stir-Fry

Ingredients

·         1 c. long-grain white rice

·         2 tbsp. olive oil

·         1 medium onion

·         kosher salt

·         Pepper

·         1 small red pepper

·         1 yellow pepper

·         1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts

·         ½ tsp. ground coriander

·         1 c. jarred salsa (we used Tostitos Cantina Chipotle)

·         1 can black beans

·         cilantro

·         sour cream

Directions

1.       Cook the rice according to package directions.

2.      Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add the red and yellow peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes; transfer to a plate.

3.      Add the remaining oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Season the chicken with the coriander and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, tossing occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add the salsa and beans and gently simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes.

4.      Fold the peppers and onions back into the chicken and serve over the rice with cilantro and sour cream, if desired.
