Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 avocado, diced

1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco

1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

1 lime, juiced

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Hot sauce (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, mix the diced chicken thighs with chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the spices.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Sauté Corn and Peppers: In the same skillet, add the corn kernels and diced red bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until the corn is slightly charred and the peppers are tender.

        Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the corn and peppers. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and stir well to combine. Allow everything to cook together for an additional 2 minutes for the flavors to meld.

          Assemble the Rice Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked rice, followed by the chicken and corn mixture. Top each bowl with diced avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with hot sauce if desired.

            Serve: Enjoy your vibrant Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl warm, garnished with extra lime wedges and cilantro if you like!
