Mexican Rice Bowl
By Sandra Woodruff

 Printer friendly page

Yield: 5 servings

1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
14 1/2-ounce can Mexican-style tomatoes, undrained and crushed
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/4 cups frozen whole kernel corn
3 cups cooked brown rice
1 1/2 to 2 cups chopped or shredded cooked skinless chicken, beef, pork, or shrimp

TOPPINGS
3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican blend cheese
1/2 cup nonfat or light sour cream
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions

1. Place the onion and olive oil in a large skillet. Cover and cook over medium heat for several minutes or until tender. Add a little water if needed, but only enough to prevent scorching.

2. Add the tomatoes and chili powder, and cook covered for 3 minutes. Add the corn, cover and cook for a couple of minutes, or until the corn is thawed and heated through. Add the rice and chicken and cook uncovered, tossing gently for a minute or two to heat through.

3. Serve hot, topping each serving with some of the cheese, sour cream, and scallions.
