1 cup uncooked regular long-grain white rice
2 cups water
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 1/4 lb)
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 medium zucchini, chopped (2 cups)
1 cup Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa
1 can (11 oz) Green Giant® SteamCrisp® Niblets® whole kernel sweet corn, drained
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

Cook rice in water as directed on package. Meanwhile, between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.
In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in oil 6 to 10 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on outside and no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from skillet; cover to keep warm.
In same skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Cook zucchini in oil 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in salsa and corn. Reduce heat to medium; cook 2 minutes longer or until thoroughly heated.
Serve chicken over rice; top with vegetable mixture, sour cream and cilantro.
