Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cilantro-lime rice)
  • 2 chicken breasts (grilled and sliced)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1/2 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
  2. Add the corn kernels and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they’re lightly charred. Season with chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt to create the lime crema. Adjust the lime juice according to your taste.

  5. Drizzle the lime crema over everything and garnish with chopped cilantro.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken in lime juice, cumin, and chili powder before grilling. If you’re in a hurry, using rotisserie chicken can save time.
