Method

Prepare the Protein

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breast with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.

Prepare the Rice

  1. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a saucepan, combine white rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Prepare the Beans

  1. 3

    Heat the Black Beans

    In a small pot, combine black beans, cumin, and chili powder. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Assemble the Bowl

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, start with a base of rice. Add sliced chicken, warm black beans, and then top with chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, sour cream, shredded cheese, and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
