Spicy Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl
Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast, grilled and sliced
2 cups cooked rice
1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco
Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Lime wedges, for serving
Directions:
Cook the Rice: Begin by preparing the rice according to the package directions. Once cooked, set it aside and keep it warm.
Grill the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill them over medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). After grilling, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Char the Corn: In a skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and cook them, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, until they develop a slight char. This will bring out the sweetness of the corn and give it a smoky flavor. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk it together until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Assemble the Bowl: In a large bowl or individual serving bowls, layer the warm rice, grilled chicken strips, and charred corn.
Top and Garnish: Drizzle the creamy lime mayo sauce generously over the bowl, then sprinkle crumbled queso fresco and fresh cilantro for added texture and flavor.
Serve: Serve with lime wedges on the side for that extra citrusy kick!
