Recipe for Tex Mex Seasoning

Cheesy Tex-Mex Chicken Skillet

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 20 mins | Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 1.5 lbs (700g) boneless chicken breasts or thighs, diced

• 2 tbsp Tex-Mex seasoning (Spiceneasy)

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 bell pepper, diced

• 1 small onion, diced

• 1 can (15oz) black beans, drained/rinsed

• 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

• 1 can (10oz) diced tomatoes with green chiles (e.g., Rotel)

• 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

• Fresh cilantro, avocado, lime wedges, and sour cream for serving

• Tortilla chips or warm flour tortillas (optional)

Instructions:

1. Season & Sear Chicken:

   • Toss diced chicken with Tex-Mex seasoning until coated.

   • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 5–6 mins until browned (it’ll finish cooking later). Remove and set aside.

2. Sauté Veggies:

   • In the same skillet, add bell pepper and onion. Cook for 3–4 mins until softened.

3. Combine & Simmer:

   • Return chicken to the skillet. Stir in black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Simmer for 5–7 mins until chicken is cooked through and flavors meld.

4. Add Cheese & Serve:

   • Sprinkle cheese over the top, cover with a lid, and let melt (1–2 mins).

   • Garnish with cilantro, avocado, and a squeeze of lime. Serve with tortilla chips or as a filling for burritos/tacos.

Pro Tips:

• Spice Control: Add a pinch of cayenne if you like heat, or reduce seasoning for kids.

• Meal Prep: Double the recipe for leftovers (it reheats beautifully).

• Vegetarian Twist: Swap chicken for extra beans or tofu, and use a vegan cheese.
