Ingredients
Scale:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons chipotle sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups cooked rice
1 large ripe mango, diced
1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup corn
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 lime, cut into wedges
Additional chipotle sauce for drizzling
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chipotle sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, cook your rice according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork once done.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Let it rest before slicing.
In a large bowl, start with a base of cooked rice and top with sliced grilled chicken, diced mango, black beans, corn, and diced red bell pepper. Add avocado slices and cilantro.
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and drizzle with additional chipotle sauce if desired. Serve immediately.
