Chicken, Black Bean & Rice Bowl

Made this tonight-it was easy and yummy; here's what I did:

Made Lisa F's spanish rice (posted on here earlier)...although I will say that I upped the salt & cumin to 1 tsp instead of the half that was on the original to give it more flavor and that is the way to go! Anyway, made this rice & let it simmer while cooking the rest.

Ingredients:
boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced
taco seasoning packet
onion, diced
bell pepper, diced (I used red & yellow because I had it on hand, but any would work)
1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
chopped cilantro

In a large skillet I sautéed in olive oil the onion, bell pepper & diced up chicken. I sprinkled half of the packet of taco seasoning over this, stirring frequently & let it cook until the chicken was no longer pink and onions/bell pepper were soft. Then I added in the black beans & cilantro and mixed it all together, serving it over the spanish rice. Yumm-o!
