Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix together adobo seasoning, paprika, black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of the chili powder. Season 1 side chicken breasts with the mixture.
- Place olive oil in a large saucepan over medium; heat until the oil shimmers. Place chicken pieces in hot oil, seasoned side down. Brown on each side, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add chopped onion to pot and cook over medium heat until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add rice, Hunt's® Diced Tomatoes (drained), corn, garlic, and remaining 2 teaspoons of chili powder, stirring to combine.
- When ingredients are well combined, add chicken broth, and stir.
- Place browned chicken pieces on top of the rice mixture, with browned side up, being careful not to submerge chicken.
- Cover and bake 15 minutes, then remove lid and continue baking about 5 minutes more.
- When chicken internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), place a slice of tomato and slices of avocado on top of each piece, and place a slice of pepper jack cheese on top.
- Return to oven and bake until cheese is melted, 3-4 minutes.
- Plate cooked chicken, then fluff rice with a fork, and serve alongside chicken. Garnish with fresh cilantro and snipped chives, if desired.

MONTERREY CHICKEN
This is such an quick and easy recipe with great flavor. A local restaurant would serve this as a very popular item on their menu. After the chef left, my daughter asked him how he cooked it and we couldn't believe it was so simple. It's good with a salad and your favorite toasted French bread.

This is a really simple recipe that my boyfriend told me about. I use the Hot Rotel and serve mine with sour cream. It's really yummy and easy to adjust to your own taste!
