A delicious and hearty Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl featuring seasoned chicken, charred corn, and a creamy sauce, perfect for a satisfying meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and cayenne pepper (if using) to create a creamy sauce. Set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the seasoned chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- In the same skillet, add the corn and cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through and slightly charred.
- To assemble the bowls, start with a base of cooked rice, then top with sliced chicken, charred corn, and drizzle the creamy sauce over the top.
- Finish with crumbled feta cheese and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños to the corn while cooking.
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with grilled zucchini or black beans.
