A delicious and satisfying one-bowl meal combining juicy chicken, sweet corn, and fluffy rice, perfect for lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or any variety)
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup sweet corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Start by preparing the chicken. Season the boneless chicken breasts with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
- Add the sweet corn to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until heated through and slightly caramelized.
- Assemble the bowls by placing a generous scoop of cooked rice at the base. Top with sliced chicken and sautéed corn.
- Add avocado slices on top and garnish with fresh cilantro if using. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
