Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 whole lime
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup long-grain white rice
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 15-ounce can canned black beans
• 1 whole ripe avocado
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 1 cup corn kernels

Directions

Step 1

Begin by marinating the chicken. In a small bowl, combine the juice of one lime, olive oil, chipotle chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, rinse and drain the black beans. Set them aside.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the rice, stir once, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 18-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

Step 5

Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken is nicely charred. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Step 6

Dice the avocado and halve the cherry tomatoes. Chop the fresh cilantro.

Step 7

In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, and corn. Stir gently to mix.

Step 8

To assemble the bowls, divide the rice mixture among 4 bowls. Top each with sliced grilled chicken, diced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.

Step 9

Serve immediately, allowing each person to mix their bowl as desired for the perfect bite every time. Enjoy your Soy-Free Chipotle Chicken Bowl!
