A vibrant and satisfying bowl featuring grilled chicken, sweet charred corn, creamy avocado, and fresh veggies, perfect for weeknight meals or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white, jasmine, or brown)
  • 1 cup grilled chicken, diced
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or canned)
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime (about 1–2 tablespoons)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Cheese, optional (crumbled cotija, feta, or grated cheddar)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your mise en place: dice the chicken, halve the tomatoes, chop the cilantro and red onion, and cube the avocado.
  2. In a large bowl, add the cooked rice first to create a base. Then add the grilled chicken, corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.
  3. Squeeze the lime juice evenly over the mixture and season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  4. Gently toss everything together so the lime and salt coat the rice and ingredients without mashing the avocado.
  5. Divide into bowls and top each serving with the diced avocado and a sprinkle of cheese if using. Serve immediately.

Notes

Swap jasmine rice for brown for nuttier texture, or use quinoa for a higher-protein base. For a spicy twist, add sliced pickled jalapeños or a drizzle of chipotle hot sauce.
