Method

Base

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the brown rice, water, olive oil, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

Protein

  1. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    While the rice is cooking, preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. In a bowl, mix the chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and olive oil. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breast.

  2. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Place the chicken on the grill or skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Toppings

  1. 4

    Prepare Toppings

    While the chicken is resting, rinse and drain the black beans and corn. Prepare the diced tomatoes, sour cream, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out.

Sauce

  1. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper until combined.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble Your Chipotle Bowl

    In a large bowl or plate, start with a base layer of the cooked brown rice. Top with sliced chicken, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, and avocado. Drizzle the lime sauce over the top and serve immediately.
