Ingredients
  

For the Chicken

  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

For the Rice Bowl

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 1/2 cups corn (fresh, canned, or thawed from frozen)
  • 2 tbsp mayo
  • 2 tbsp sour cream
  • 1/2 tsp lime juice
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • Crumbled cotija or feta (optional)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Rub chicken with olive oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Cooking

  • Grill or sear chicken until cooked through, about 5–6 minutes per side.

Making Corn Sauce

  • In a bowl, mix mayo, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Stir in corn and chopped cilantro. Warm slightly in a skillet or microwave.

Assembling the Bowl

  • Layer cooked rice into bowls.
  • Top with sliced grilled chicken and the creamy street corn mixture.

Garnishing

  • Sprinkle with extra cilantro and cheese if desired. Serve warm!

Notes

To store leftovers, place the chicken, rice, and corn mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave until warmed through. Marinating the chicken for an hour before cooking enhances the flavor.
