Ingredients:
3 cups chicken broth or 3 cups water
1 1/2 lbs chicken, seasoned ( I prefer breasts)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 package red beans and rice mix
shredded cheese
Directions:
Cook chicken with either Cajun or Mexican seasonings– sometimes I bake the chicken, and sometimes I saute it.
(I’ve also cut up a store-bought rotisserie chicken for this).
Dice cooked chicken.
Prepare red beans& rice (I like Zatarrain’s) per package directions.
(it has to cook about 30 min) Meanwhile, combine chicken broth& diced tomatoes; bring to a boil.
When boiling, add diced chicken.
Reduce heat and cook about 10 minutes.
Add prepared beans and rice; heat through.
Spoon into bowls and top with cheese.
