This was uber YUMMY!!!  Ross said "this is a new fav of mine".  It was a little running because I put more chicken broth then asked for, so stick to that measurement!!!  YUMMY :)

1 pound thin sliced chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 large zucchini, chopped
1/2 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup instant brown rice (uncooked) OR 1/4 cup quinoa, rinsed (uncooked)
