• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 lb chicken tenderloins
• 1 onion
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
• 1 fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• salt & pepper
• 2 cups rice (white or brown)

directions

1. Start the rice first. Cook accordingly. I use white rice and it takes about 20 minutes so I wait about 10 minutes before I start making the chicken.
2. I slice the chicken tenderloins into even thinner strips as well as the onion and bell pepper.
3. Preheat pan and add some olive oil. Saute onions and veggies to desired tenderness. Add in the tomato paste ( I only use a 1/2 of can) and saute until blended well. Throw the chicken strips into the mix and coat well with the veggies and tomato paste until chicken is cooked thru. Add salt & pepper to taste. Top with fresh cilantro and serve over rice! Yum!
