Ingredients
- 1⅓ lb chicken breast
- 2½ cups cooked rice
- 1½ cups black beans
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 2 avocados, sliced
- 2 tomatoes, diced
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 tsp cumin

Instructions
- Marinate chicken in lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic, and olive oil for at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, cook rice according to package directions with a bay leaf in the water.
- Heat a skillet over high heat until smoking. Cook chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until charred and cooked through (165°F internal). Rest 5 minutes, then slice.
- While the chicken rests, fold fresh lime juice, chopped cilantro, and salt into the hot rice. Warm the black beans with cumin in a small pot.
- Build the bowls: rice on the bottom, black beans, sliced chicken. Top with pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, and a squeeze of lime.

Chef Tips
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after cooking so the juices redistribute.
