1
Prepare the Rice
In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 1 cup of white rice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked through. Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork.
2
Add Cilantro and Lime
Stir in 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, salt, and pepper to the rice. Mix well and set aside.
3
Prepare the Black Beans
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup of black beans (canned or cooked), season with salt and pepper, and heat until warmed through.
4
Grill the Chicken
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and olive oil. Grill on medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
5
Assemble the Bowl
In a bowl, layer the cilantro lime rice, black beans, and sliced grilled chicken. Top with queso and any additional cold toppings of your choice (e.g., diced tomatoes, avocado, corn, etc.).
