Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1 cup grilled corn kernels (or canned, drained)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Grill or pan-sear until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Let rest, then slice.

  • Assemble the Rice Bowl: Divide cooked rice into serving bowls. Top with sliced chicken and the corn mixture.
  • Finish with Garnishes: Sprinkle remaining cotija cheese and additional cilantro. Add a lime wedge for squeezing, if desired.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra heat, add diced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce.
  • Use leftover rotisserie chicken for a quicker meal prep.
  • Brown rice or quinoa can be used as substitutes for white rice.
