• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1 cup long-grain white rice
• 2 cups water or chicken broth
• 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
• Zest of 1 lime
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• Salt to taste
• 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
• 1 large avocado, sliced
• 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
• Fresh salsa or pico de gallo
• Hot sauce, to taste

Preparación

1. 1

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water (or broth), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from heat, fluff with a fork, and stir in the butter, lime zest, lime juice, and fresh cilantro. Cover and set aside.

2. 2

   While the rice cooks, pat the chicken dry and place it in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

3. 3

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain.

4. 4

   In a small skillet or the same pan used for the chicken (wiped clean), add the black beans and corn. Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Add a splash of water or a squeeze of lime if needed.

5. 5

   Assemble the bowls: Start with a generous bed of cilantro-lime rice in each bowl. Top with the sliced chicken, warm black beans, and corn. Arrange avocado slices, a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and a handful of lettuce on top. Finish with a spoonful of fresh salsa and a dash of hot sauce.

6. 6

   Garnish with an extra squeeze of lime and additional cilantro if desired. Serve immediately.
