In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime zest & juice, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Add chicken, coat well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours).
2️⃣ Cook the Rice:
Rinse and cook the rice according to package instructions using water or broth. Once done, fluff with a fork and stir in lime juice, cilantro, olive oil, and a pinch of salt.
3️⃣ Grill or Sauté the Chicken:
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
Cook chicken until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes, turning occasionally.
Let rest, then slice or leave in chunks.
4️⃣ Assemble Your Bowls:
Start with a base of cilantro rice, then top with chili lime chicken and your choice of toppings—avocado, tomatoes, corn, jalapeños, etc.
Finish with a lime wedge and a drizzle of yogurt or sour cream, if you like.
💡 Tips:
Add black beans or pinto beans for extra protein and fiber.
