One Pot Dinner: Red Chile Chicken

Heat the oil in a medium/large saucepan over medium heat. Salt and pepper the chicken breasts. Stir together the chili powders and sprinkle some over the chicken. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side, in two batches if necessary. Remove to a plate and set aside. Add the onions and rice and saute for 3 minutes or so. Add the garlic and remaining chili powder and cook for another minute. Add the chicken broth, stir and bring to a boil. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut chicken breasts into 1-inch chunks. When 10 minutes is up, add chicken and beans to the rice. Cover and cook another 12 minutes. Fold in chopped cilantro. Test a grain of rice, and if it is still at all chalky, cover and let it sit over low heat for 2 or 3 more minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork. Serve with sour cream and cilantro sprigs.
