Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 cup street corn (frozen or fresh)
- 1 cup cooked rice (or brown rice/quinoa)
- 1/2 cup cheese (like cotija or feta)
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro (for garnish)
- 1 piece lime (for juice)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions
- Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken until tender, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest.

- Prep your cooked rice or fluff brown rice/quinoa with a fork.
- Add a scoop of rice to a bowl as your base. Slice the rested chicken and layer on top.
- Spoon the sautéed corn over chicken, followed by a sprinkle of cheese.
- Chop fresh cilantro and sprinkle over the bowl. Finish with lime juice.
- Drizzle your choice of creamy sauce on top.
