To make this dish, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup corn kernels
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp chipotle sauce
To start, cook the brown rice according to package instructions. While the rice is cooking, prepare the other ingredients. In a large bowl, combine the black beans, corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro. In a separate bowl, mash the avocado with a fork and mix in the lime juice, salt, and black pepper to make the guacamole.
Next, season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked brown rice between two bowls. Top each bowl with the black bean and corn mixture, sliced chicken, and a dollop of guacamole. Drizzle chipotle sauce over the top of each bowl and serve immediately.
