Ingredients

Protein

  • 1 lb chicken breast (diced into 1-2 inch pieces)
  • 2 teaspoons blackened seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt (optional, use only if seasoning doesn't contain salt)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)

Vegetables

  • 1 small onion (finely diced)
  • 2 medium carrots (diced into small pieces (⅓ - ½ inch), about 1.5 cups)
  • 8-12 oz fresh green beans (ends trimmed and sliced into 1-inch pieces, about 2.5 - 3 cups)

Liquids and Canned Goods

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 14 oz canned diced tomatoes (do not drain, use juices)
  • 14 oz canned black-eyed peas (drained and rinsed, about 2 cups cooked)
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves (finely diced)

Instructions 

  • Toss chicken with blackened seasoning and salt (if using). Cook in a skillet with 1 tbsp olive oil until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • Sauté carrots and onion in remaining olive oil until tender, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Add green beans, chicken broth, and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then simmer until green beans are cooked, about 5-10 minutes.
  • Stir in black-eyed peas and cooked chicken, then add parsley. Serve hot as a soup or over rice.

Notes

For a more soupy consistency, add extra chicken broth or uncover to reduce liquid.
