Cook the Brown Rice: Start by preparing 2 cups of brown rice according to the package instructions. Typically, you will need to boil 4 cups of water, add the rice, and cook it until tender (about 30-40 minutes). Once cooked, set it aside.
Season the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of diced chicken breast with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of chipotle seasoning, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Toss until the chicken is thoroughly coated.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Once cooked, remove it from heat and cover to keep warm.
Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add 1 cup of corn and 1 diced red bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until the veggies are just tender. Add the black beans and cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm them through.
Combine and Serve: In bowls, layer the cooked brown rice, followed by the sautéed vegetables, and top with the cooked chicken. Add diced avocado, fresh salsa, lime juice, and chopped cilantro to finish. Feel free to customize each bowl according to your preference!
