Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 2 grilled chicken breasts, sliced
- 1 cup sweet corn (canned or grilled)
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup diced avocado
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 lime, juiced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Place the cooked rice into a large serving bowl.
- Fluff the rice with a fork so the grains separate.
- Add the sliced grilled chicken breasts to the bowl.
- Arrange the chicken so it rests atop the rice in thin slices.

- Add the diced red bell pepper for color and a crisp bite.

Notes
For fluffier rice, use day-old rice. If using canned corn, drain it well to avoid a watery bowl. Keep avocado and cilantro separate until serving to preserve freshness.
