Step-by-Step Instructions for Delicious Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl
- Rinse your rice under cold water to remove excess starch, then cook according to package instructions, typically simmering in salted water for about 15-20 minutes. Once the rice is tender and water is absorbed, fluff with a fork and keep warm.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin. Heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed, then toss in the corn and red onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until corn is lightly charred and onions have softened. Add minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, sautéed corn mixture, and the juice of one lime. Gently toss everything together until the rice is evenly coated.
- Divide the rice mixture among serving bowls, top with sliced chicken, diced avocado, and a dollop of Greek yogurt or Cotija cheese.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve immediately.
