Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • 1 tsp chili powder

  • ½ tsp paprika

  • 1 lime (juiced)

  • ¼ cup cotija cheese, crumbled

  • 1 avocado, sliced

  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush chicken and corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  2. Grill chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until cooked through. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until slightly charred.

  3. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, chili powder, paprika, and lime juice to create the sauce.

  4. Cut corn kernels off the cob.

  5. Slice chicken into strips.

  6. Assemble bowls with a base of rice, topped with chicken, corn, avocado, cotija cheese, and a drizzle of the sauce.

  7. Sprinkle with cilantro and extra lime if desired.

Notes

  • Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a lighter version.

  • Add jalapeños or hot sauce for extra spice.

  • Works great with quinoa instead of rice for a gluten-free option.
