Mexican · Serves 2
with Tomato Salsa and Monterey Jack Cheese
We’re helping you get one big step closer to slow-cooked perfection with our ready-to-heat pulled chicken. We’ve already taken care of making the meat pull-apart tender; you’ve just got to warm it up with some spices for extra flavor. You’ll be serving it on top of fluffy jasmine rice with some fresh tomato salsa and sour cream to keep things cool.
In a small pot, combine 1 cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings) and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4). Bring to a boil, then stir in rice, cover, and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15- 18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 2 TBSP (3 TBSP for 4 servings). Core, deseed, and thinly slice bell pepper. Finely dice tomato. Finely chop cilantro leaves and stems. Quarter lime.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until just softened, 3-4 minutes.
Add another large drizzle of oil to pan with veggies. Break up chicken into smaller pieces and add to pan. Season with salt, pepper, and Fajita Spice. Cook, stirring, until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Stir in stock concentrate and ½ cup water (¾ cup for 4 servings). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer and stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4). Let simmer 1-2 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tomato, minced onion, and half the cilantro. Add a squeeze of lime juice to taste and season with salt and pepper.
Fluff rice with a fork and season with salt and pepper. Divide between plates and top with chicken and veggie mixture. Garnish with Monterey Jack, salsa, sour cream, and remaining cilantro. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
