Gluten-Free Chicken Enchilada Bowls

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Chicken breast
• 2 cups Cooked brown rice
• 1 jar (15 oz) Gluten-free enchilada sauce
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup Diced onion
• 0.5 cup Diced bell pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

1. 1Cut the 1.5 lbs of chicken breast into 1/2-inch cubes.
2. 2Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, which is about 350°F (175°C).
3. 3Add the 0.5 cup of diced onion and 0.5 cup of diced bell pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are softened, which should take about 5 minutes.
4. 4Add the cubed 1.5 lbs of chicken breast to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). This will take about 7-10 minutes.

6. 6Divide the 2 cups of cooked brown rice evenly among four serving bowls.
7. 7Spoon the chicken and enchilada sauce mixture from the skillet over the brown rice in each of the four bowls.
8. 8Sprinkle the top of each bowl with the 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and the 0.25 cup of chopped cilantro.
