Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups cooked rice
  • 2 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese
  • Optional toppings: sliced avocado, pickled red onions, jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  2. In a bowl, toss chicken breasts with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Grill chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
  4. While chicken is grilling, grill corn kernels until lightly charred.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, and cilantro to make the sauce.
  6. Assemble the bowls: divide cooked rice among four bowls. Top with sliced grilled chicken, charred corn, cotija cheese, and a drizzle of the creamy lime sauce.
  7. Add any optional toppings you prefer.

Notes

  • For meal prep, store components separately and assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.
