Description

A delicious and satisfying bowl featuring grilled chicken, flavorful corn, and nutritious rice, perfect for lunch or dinner.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 1/2 cups corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and half the chili powder.
  3. Grill chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.
  4. In a skillet over medium heat, roast the corn until charred, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  5. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and remaining chili powder. Add roasted corn, cotija cheese, and half of the cilantro. Stir to combine.
  6. Divide cooked rice among four bowls, top with sliced grilled chicken, and spoon street corn mixture over the chicken. Garnish with extra cotija cheese and cilantro if desired.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, replace chicken with grilled vegetables or black beans. Customize toppings to taste.
