  • 1 (49.5 fluid ounce) can chicken broth

  • 1 (14 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained

  • 1 (14 ounce) can black beans, drained

  • 1 cube beef bouillon

  • ¾ cup chopped broccoli

  • 1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes (crushed)

Directions

Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into the skillet. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken; cook and stir until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lime juice, tequila, onion powder, garlic salt, cayenne pepper, and Cajun seasoning; cook another 2 minutes.
