- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce

Instructions:

- Sauté the vegetables: Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chicken: Add the diced chicken breast to the pot, cooking until it’s no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
- Stir in the spices: Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat the chicken and vegetables with the spices.
- Combine the ingredients: Add the diced tomatoes, black beans, tomato sauce, and chicken broth to the pot. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a boil.
