Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with this mixture ensuring every bite is infused with flavor.
  2. Sauté the Chicken: Cook the marinated chicken in a skillet over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove and let it rest to retain its juices.
  3. Layer the Bowls: In a serving bowl, start your delicious layering by adding a generous base of cooked rice, followed by black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Each layer adds a luscious texture and flavor burst.
  4. Slice and Serve the Chicken: Slice the perfectly cooked chicken and elegantly place it on top of your beautiful layers, inviting all the flavors to mingle.
  5. Add Fresh Toppings: Add avocado slices atop the chicken, followed by a sprinkle of cheese and cilantro. The fresh garnishes will add a pop of color and freshness to your bowl.
  6. Finish with Lime: Serve your burrito bowls with lime wedges on the side for that perfect citrus zing.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the marinated chicken sit for at least 30 minutes before cooking—or overnight for an even bolder taste! You can customize with different proteins or spices.
