Cilantro Lime Chicken Burrito Bowls
Report
Zesty Cilantro Lime Chicken Burrito Bowls are better than takeout and can be cooked in around 15 minutes + marinating. Plus, there is a keto option that is as equally delicious! Loaded with corn, black beans, cheddar cheese, sour-cream, sauteed bell pepper, avocado, and grilled chicken, they are sure to become a favorite!

Ingredients
- 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch red pepper flakes Optional
To Assemble Bowls
- 1 cup corn fresh or frozen
- 1 red sweet pepper
- 1 can black beans drained
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- avocado sliced (or guacamole)
- sour cream
- salsa
- Cilantro Lime Rice
Instructions
- Marinate: In a large bowl, whisk the lime juice, lime zest, cilantro, olive oil, garlic, and spices. Add the chicken and combine until the chicken is coated in the marinade. Cover and chill for 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Cook: Heat a grill or heavy-duty pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil it. Add the chicken and grill for 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove from heat and cover to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
- To the same pan (use foil or cast iron pan if on the grill), Add the sliced peppers and saute for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Remove the bell peppers and onion from the pan and add the corn and saute for 3-4 minutes or until warmed through.
- Assemble: To a medium serving bowl, Add about ½ cup of cooked rice (we love this cilantro lime rice for burrito bowls recipe HERE), chopped romaine lettuce, grilled chicken, cooked bell peppers & onion, beans, corn, sour cream, avocado, and your favorite salsa.
