1 to 2  teaspoons chili powder

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb)

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 can (15 oz) Progresso® black beans, drained, rinsed

1 can (11 oz) Green Giant® Mexicorn® whole kernel corn with red and green peppers, undrained

1/3 cup Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa

2 cups hot cooked rice

1. Mix chili powder, salt and pepper. Sprinkle evenly over both sides of chicken. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (170°F).

2. Stir in beans, corn and salsa. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are hot. Serve with rice.

Variation: Make a quick chicken tortilla sandwich by cooking just the chicken breasts as directed. Spread 4 tortillas each with 2 tablespoons salsa and sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese to within 1 inch of edge. Place chicken breast in center, and fold sides of tortilla over chicken. Microwave briefly to melt cheese.
