1
Cook Rice
In a medium pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until all water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
2
Prepare Black Beans
If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them thoroughly. If using dried beans, soak them overnight and cook until tender. Set aside.
3
Cook Corn
If using fresh corn, slice kernels off the cob; if using frozen, heat in a microwave or on the stove until warmed through. Set aside.
4
Make Guacamole
In a bowl, mash 2 ripe avocados, add lime juice, chopped cilantro, diced onion, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well and set aside.
5
Prepare Pico de Gallo
Combine diced tomatoes, chopped onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.

6
Fry the Egg
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of oil. Crack the medium egg into the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the white is set, and the yolk is still runny. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7
Assemble the Bowl
In a large bowl, layer the cooked rice at the bottom, followed by black beans, corn, guacamole, pico de gallo, and tortilla strips on top. Drizzle with Au Jus Verde. Finally, place the fried egg on top of the assembled ingredients.
