📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large Dutch oven/soup pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken and lightly sear on both sides, approximately ⏱️ 2 minutes, but don’t cook through.
2
Add chicken broth and wild rice to chicken and bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer on medium low, stirring occasionally for ⏱️ 15-20 minutes or until chicken is tender enough to shred. Remove chicken and let rest until cool enough to shred.
3
Meanwhile, add all of the Coconut Mango Verde Sauce to a blender and blend until smooth.
4
After you remove chicken, add black beans, diced tomatoes and Coconut Mango Verde Sauce to pot with rice (don’t add chicken back yet). Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for ⏱️ 20-30 minutes or until rice is tender. Stir often, especially towards the end so the rice doesn’t stick to the bottom and burn. *Note: Rice cooking time varies so I suggest checking the rice occasionally until done.
5
Once rice is tender, add shredded chicken back to pot along with zucchini and bell peppers. Simmer for ⏱️ 2 minutes.
