Instructions
Step-by-Step
Step 1: Marinate and Cook the Chicken
Rub chicken breasts with olive oil, paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Let sit for 15 minutes. Grill over medium-high heat for about 6–7 minutes per side or until juices run clear. Let rest, then slice.
Step 2: Cook Your Rice
Prepare your rice according to package instructions. For extra flavor, cook it in chicken broth and add a squeeze of lime juice at the end.
Step 3: Prep the Vegetables
Thinly slice the red bell peppers and sauté them in a skillet with a dash of olive oil until tender-crisp.
Step 4: Assemble Your Bowl
Start with a base of rice. Layer on sliced grilled chicken, sautéed peppers, black beans, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. Finish with fresh cilantro and a lime wedge.
