• 1 1/4 cup basmati rice
• 2 1/4 cup chicken broth

Preparación

1. 1

   --- Make the cilantro lime rice: ---

2. 2

   Over medium high heat in a saucepan (with a lid) add butter and basmati rice. Let butter melt and the rice toast, stirring occasionally to not let it burn. Once rice is toasted and the butter is melted (2-3 minutes), add the remaining ingredients and return to a boil. Once boiling, cover with the lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Fluff with a fork.

3. 3

   --- Make chicken fajitas: ---

4. 4

   In a mixing bowl, combine chunks of chicken, 1 tablespoon olive oil, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, paprika, pepper, salt, and juice of 1 lime. Stir together.

5. 5

   Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet pan over medium-high heat. Dump the contents of the chicken mixture in the bowl, cook chicken until fully cooked, about 5 minutes or so. Once cooked, remove from skillet pan and set aside.

6. 6

   Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet pan, add the bell pepper and onion. I like to season this with some salt (about 1/4 teaspoon). Sauté mixture for several minutes until it's tender.

7. 7

   When peppers and onion are done, add the chicken back in and stir everything together.

8. 8

   Assemble the burrito bowls by laying rice in the bottom of a bowl, top with some chicken fajita mixture, and then top with desired toppings.
