Instructions
Honey Chipotle Chicken
- Whisk together the olive oil, chipotle, adobo sauce, lime juice, honey, garlic powder, cumin, cilantro, salt and pepper in a bowl or glass measuring cup. Add the chicken to a freezer bag and pour in the marinade. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Let the chicken marinate for at least an hour and up to 4 hours.
- Preheat grill or skillet to medium-high heat (about 400-425° F. on the grill). Oil the grill grates or skillet and add on the chicken breasts. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on the first side and then flip them over and grill until the internal temperature is 165° F.
- Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before dicing or slicing it.
Avocado Corn Salsa
- In a bowl add the corn kernels, diced avocado, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir everything together and taste it for seasoning.
Assembling the Bowls
- Divide the rice evenly into the bowls. Top the rice with some of the chicken, salsa, and cheese. Garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge.
