Instructions
Creating the Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to prepare your delicious meal:
1. Cook the Rice: Begin by cooking your rice according to the package directions, ensuring it’s fluffy and ready to serve.
2. Prepare the Chicken: While the rice cooks, season the chicken breasts with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Grill the Chicken: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the seasoned chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
4. Grill the Corn: In the same pan, add the corn kernels and grill for about 5 minutes until they’re slightly charred and heated through.
5. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with lime juice and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
6. Slice the Chicken: Once the chicken has rested, slice it into thin strips.
7. Assemble the Bowl: In a serving bowl, layer the cooked rice, grilled corn, sliced chicken, and diced avocado. Drizzle the lime mayonnaise over the top.
8. Garnish: Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and crumbled queso fresco or feta cheese if desired.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Your Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl is now ready to serve hot.
