Adobo Chicken and Seasoned Rice

Found this in a penzeys magazine and made it about 6 months ago. Melik is still requesting this recipe so I dug it up and decided to add it to the list. Will have to make this soon.

4 chicken breast halves, boned and skinned
1-2 T adobo seasoning (1 t garlic and cumin, 1/2 t oregano, black pepper, salt and cayenne)
2 T water
4 T lime juice (2 limes)
1 t salt to taste
2 t butter
2 c cooked rice
1/2 c canned red beans
1/2 c frozen corn kernels

Mix adobo seasoning with water, and let stand 5 mins. Place breasts in a bowl, sprinkle on both sides with juice, then rub with adobo paste. Cover and refridgerate 1-2 hrs.

Heat a nonstick skillet over med heat, add butter and swirl to coat. Sprinkle salt on chicken, add to pan and cook 3-4 mins, then turn. Cook another 3-4 mins until both sides are browned and sprinkle with lime juice to serve.

Add the juice of the last lime half to pan and stir and scrape up any chicken bits. Add 2 c rice, 1/2 c red beans and corn. Stir to coat and heat through, add salt and pepper to taste. Divide between the plates and serve!
