🥄 STEPS
1️⃣ Marinate the Chicken
Mix olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt & pepper.
Pour over chicken and marinate 30 min–4 hrs.

2️⃣ Cook the Chicken
Heat grill or grill pan on medium-high.
Cook 6–8 min per side until 165°F (75°C).
Rest, then slice into strips.

3️⃣ Make the Street Corn
If fresh, grill and cut kernels off.
If frozen/canned, heat in skillet.
Mix mayo, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, paprika & cheese.
Fold in warm corn + cilantro.

4️⃣ Prepare the Rice
Toss warm rice with lime juice & chopped cilantro.

5️⃣ Assemble the Bowls
Add cilantro-lime rice → sliced chicken → street corn.
Finish with avocado, tomatoes, jalapeños, cheese & lime.

6️⃣ Serve
Enjoy warm with an extra squeeze of lime for brightness.

✨ NOTES
• Thighs stay juicier than breasts.
• Char the corn for a true street-style flavor.
• Adjust spice level with more chili powder or jalapeños.
• Rice can be swapped with quinoa or cauliflower rice.

✨ DIET VARIATIONS
• Low-carb: Serve over cauliflower rice.
• Dairy-free: Use vegan mayo, skip cheese, add avocado.
• High-protein: Add black beans or double chicken.

❓ FAQ
Can I use canned corn?
Yes — just sauté briefly for flavor.
Breasts or thighs?
Thighs give more moisture; breasts are leaner.
Make ahead?
Marinate chicken up to 24h; prep rice & corn in advance.
