1 cup water
½ cup uncooked long grain white rice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
4 fluid ounces Mexican beer
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
½ red bell pepper, chopped
1 fresh red chile pepper, finely chopped
½ clove garlic, minced
½ lime, thinly sliced
½ lemon, thinly sliced
¼ cup grated Romano cheese

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, bring the water and rice to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 25 minutes, until rice is tender.
