  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup sweet corn (canned or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. While the chicken is marinating, cook the corn in a skillet over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
  5. Slice the grilled chicken into strips.
  6. In bowls, layer cooked rice, grilled chicken, sweet corn, and sliced avocado.
  7. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Add feta cheese if desired.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
