I like to add hot sauce to this when adding the chicken & tomatoes. If you think you'll have leftovers, add avocado to individual servings rather than to the whole pot - it doesn't reheat well.
Ingredients:
cooking spray
1 cup chopped onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup uncooked white rice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 16-oz can great northern beans, rinsed and drained
3 cups chopped cooked chicken
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 10-oz can rotel diced tomatoes with chiles
3/4 cup diced peeled avocado (about 1 medium)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
6 lime wedges
Directions:
1. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
2. Coat pan with cooking spray.
3. Add onion and garlic, and sauté 3 minutes.
4. Add broth, rice, cumin, and beans; bring to a boil.
5. Reduce heat; simmer 15 minutes.
6. Stir in chicken, tomatoes, cilantro, pepper, and salt; simmer 5 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly heated.
7. Remove from heat, and stir in avocado, and lime juice.
8. Serve with lime wedges.
