For the Chicken Meal Prep:1 cup long grain white or brown rice
1 cup water
14 ounces of fresh salsa
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oil
about 1 lb. chicken breasts, cut into 4–6 smallish pieces
lots of spices like cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and cayenne
For Sunshine Sauce
3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 clove garlic
black pepper to taste
fresh herbs optional (see notes)
fresh lemon
For Adding In Later:1 14-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
a handful of chopped fresh cilantro
Cook: Place the rice, water, tomatoes, salt, and oil in the pot. Stir to combine. Place the chicken pieces on top and sprinkle generously with your favorite spices and some salt. Turn the instant pot on high pressure for 7-8 minutes. When done, use the quick release valve for the steam.
Mix: Remove the chicken. Mix the black beans (and maybe a little sunshine sauce) in with the rice.
Blitz sunshine sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth and creamy.
Meal Prep Yourself: Divide the rice and beans amongst 4-6 meal prep containers. Top each with a piece of chicken. Sprinkle with cilantro and drizzle with a spoonful of sauce.
