    List of Ingredients




    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    2 teaspoons chili powder
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon oregano
    1/2 cup chicken broth
    1 1/2 cups low-sodium V-8 Juice
    1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans
    2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese
    2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
    1/4 cup sour cream, optional
    3 cups cooked long-grain white rice

    Recipe



    Heat the oil in a large, heavy, nonstick skillet. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
    Cut chicken into 1/2-inch dice. Add to onion, along with chili powder, cumin and oregano.

    Cook until chicken is no longer pink, about 3 minutes.

    Add the chicken broth, V-8 Juice and beans with their liquid. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes.

    Chop cheddar cheese into 1/2-inch cubes or grate it; stir into chicken mixture until melted. Immediately remove from heat. Serve over rice, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
    Add a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
