INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Black Beans (cooked)
1/2 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Mixed Spices (Cumin, Paprika, Garlic Powder)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, mixed spices, salt, and pepper. Lightly dust the chicken breast on all sides with this seasoned cornstarch mixture.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast for about 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden and crispy.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, gently heat the black beans in a saucepan with a splash of water and mix in the lime juice for a zesty flavor. Stir occasionally until warmed.
Reheat the pre-cooked brown rice if necessary, ensuring it’s fluffy and ready to serve.
Plate the crispy chicken alongside a serving of brown rice and top with a generous spoonful of zesty black beans. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lime if desired.
