Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I have to admit I did adjust to make it work for me. I had leftover black beans, petite diced tomatos, and cooked brown rice. I just chopped my chicken breast, and sauteed with onion like the recipe stated and added my leftovers. It was super easy and tasted great. Love that I had dinner on the table in about 30 minutes AND got to use up my leftovers.

In reply to Debbie. This recipe... was a total fail. Your timing is completely off and now dinner is ruined. Followed directions exactly. I always write positive reviews but this time I couldn’t bring myself to serve that to my family.

In reply to Debbie. The brown rice I use always takes about 45 minutes to cook and absorb the liquid. For this recipe, which I'm looking forward to tonight, I think I'll add only the rice after sauteing the onion, bring it to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes before adding the remaining ingredients and continue to simmer a half hour or so. Hope this works. Thanks so much.

Are you adding rice and water to the skillet. Everything together all at once?

Made this today as I had a tin of Black Beans and wasn’t sure how to use them.
Added a green chilli (chopped) and some Green Peppers at the end to give it a bit of crunch and up the 5-a-day.

Tasted really god, and now have leftovers in the fridge for the next 2 evenings.

Could probably add other veg to this as well. Got some Chestnut Mushrooms that added 1/2 way through the cooking would be good.

Love these nice simple menus that can easily be adapted.
