Instructions

  1. Place the chicken in a bowl together with the oil, chipotle, lime juice, honey, and seasonings. Rub on all sides to evenly coat with the marinade, then set aside.
  2. Preheat a heavy-bottom pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes, then slice or chop it.
  3. While the chicken cooks, prepare the cauliflower rice. Heat half of the oil in a heavy-bottom skillet and add the corn. Cook undisturbed until it begins to brown. Stir in the remaining oil and the cauliflower rice. Cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower rice is tender. Stir in the lime juice and seasonings.
  4. To assemble your bowls, divide the cauliflower and corn rice. Top with seared chipotle chicken, avocado, jalapeño, and parsley.

Notes

  • Meal prep: Chicken rice bowls are a great make ahead option! Pack the chicken separately from the corn and rice ingredients in airtight containers and store in the fridge. Then, it’s super easy to throw together for a quick meal!
  • Leftovers: Only chop up enough avocado for what you will be eating. If you do have some leftover, drizzle a bit of lime juice over it before storing. The chicken and cauliflower rice with corn will keep for 4 to 5 days, stored in the fridge.
