- Serve over rice.
- Place all ingredients in a large glass measuring or any microwave safe bowl. The rice expands during cooking, so be sure to choose a container that is large enough. Microwave on high, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Microwave on medium-low, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Do not stir the rice at any time during the cooking process. Season with salt and fluff with a fork just before serving.

WHITE LIGHTNING CHILI
This recipe's from my distant cousin. She made this during our family reunion. This is a tweaked version that has some meaty pinto beans and some chipotle chili powder running through it to give it some nice smokiness. Don't worry about the amount of spices. It may seem like a lot, but in the end, it's really not. Preparation time does not include the time you cook the chicken.

Steps:
- After the kidney beans have soaked over night, rinse, then bring to the boil in a pan for 10mins.
- Meanwhile chop all the vegetables into small chunks.
- After 10mins, drain the beans and add the tinned tomato, the chopped vegetables and the rest of the ingredients. Then bring to simmer for 30-40 mins, or until the kidney beans have softened.
- Add to the cooked brown rice.
Tips:
- Use ground turkey or beef: Both meats cook quickly and are a good source of protein.
- Choose your beans wisely: Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices for chili. If you're using canned beans, rinse them well before adding them to the pot.
- Don't skimp on the spices: Chili is all about the flavor, so don't be afraid to add a generous amount of chili powder, cumin, and paprika. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper, to taste.
- Simmer for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the chili, the better it will taste.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro are all popular choices.
