Instructions:
-
Cook the rice: In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for the time indicated on the rice package instructions (usually about 15-20 minutes for white rice or 40-45 minutes for brown rice). Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and stir in lime juice and cilantro.
-
Prepare the chicken: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with the marinade mixture. Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice into thin strips.
-
Make the black beans: In a small saucepan, combine the black beans, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and a splash of water. Heat over medium heat until warmed through. Mash some of the beans with a fork to create a thicker consistency if desired.
-
Prepare the corn salsa: In a bowl, combine the corn, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Stir well to combine.
-
Make the guacamole: In a bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until desired consistency is reached. Add lime juice, red onion, cilantro, and salt. Mix well.
-
Assemble the burrito bowl: In individual serving bowls, start with a layer of cilantro lime rice. Top with sliced chicken, black beans, corn salsa, and guacamole. Add any additional desired toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream or Greek yogurt, salsa, lettuce, diced tomatoes, or hot sauce.
