Chicken and Chipotle Rice Bowl Smoky Chipotle Chicken Rice Bowl with Corn and Avocado Ingredients: 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped 1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from the can) 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 teaspoon cumin Salt and black pepper to taste 1 cup uncooked jasmine or basmati rice 2 cups water or chicken broth 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen) 1 avocado, sliced 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped Juice of 1 lime 1/2 cup sour cream (optional) 1/4 cup shredded cheddar or cotija cheese (optional) Directions: In a bowl, combine chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Coat chicken breasts with this mixture and marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor). Cook rice in a saucepan with water or chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered for 15 minutes or until tender. Set aside and fluff with a fork. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and lightly charred. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice. In the same pan, sauté corn for 2-3 minutes until slightly charred. Assemble the bowls: add a bed of rice, then top with sliced chicken, black beans, sautéed corn, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of cheese if using. Drizzle with lime juice, a spoonful of sour cream, and garnish with chopped cilantro.
