Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they're coated evenly in the marinade. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water. In a pot, combine the rice with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18 minutes, until tender.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once shimmering, add the corn kernels and sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. Remove marinated chicken and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  5. In bowls, layer jasmine rice, sliced chicken, sautéed corn, and diced avocado.
  6. Drizzle fresh lime juice over the top and sprinkle chopped cilantro. Serve warm with optional sour cream or yogurt.
