One-Pan Chicken Fajita Rice My birthday is coming up and all I want for my birthday is some really good Mexican food. Stir in the uncooked rice, broth, sour cream, chicken, green chilies, salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. I like to stir it once or twice to make sure it cooks evenly.
Instructions to make Chicken Fajita Rice:
- In a large, deep skillet with a tight fitting lid, heat 2 tbsp of the butter. Once it's melted, add in the peppers and onion with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until they're softened…about 5-7 minutes. Then add the garlic and the additional tbsp of butter and cook another minute or so more, until fragrant.
- Turn the heat up to med-high and stir in the rice and seasonings. Let the rice toast for 3-4 minutes, stirring often. Then stir in the diced green chiles, broth, lime juice and sour cream until it's all integrated. Place the lid on and let it come to a low boil. Once at a boil, lower the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has absorbed.
- Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle the cheese across the top. Place the lid back on and let the cheese melt, then serve.
