  • 1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 cup water

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
