Instrucciones

Arrange a rack in center of oven; preheat to 375°. Spray a 13" x 9" baking pan with cooking spray.

In small heatproof bowl, place bouillon cube. Pour 2/3 c. boiling water over. Let sit 30 seconds, then mash with a fork to dissolve.

Spread rice in prepared pan. Pour in chicken bouillon liquid and tomatoes, stirring to combine. Tightly cover pan with foil and bake 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine salt, chile powder, garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, cayenne, oregano, and black pepper. Pat chicken dry; season all over with half of seasoning mix.

Remove pan from oven, uncover, and arrange chicken on top of rice.

In a large bowl, combine bell peppers, onion, jalapeños, garlic, and remaining seasoning mix. Arrange on top and around chicken. Tightly cover dish with foil.

Bake casserole until rice is cooked and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken registers 155°, 35 to 40 minutes.

Remove dish from oven and heat broiler. Remove foil and top with cheese. Broil, uncovered and watching closely, until cheese is melted and bubbly, 4 to 5 minutes.

Transfer chicken to a cutting board and thinly slice, if desired. Serve with peppers and rice, cilantro, pico de gallo, sour cream, and tortillas alongside.
