Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 3 tbsp Chipotle Peppers in Adobo
  • 2 cups Long-Grain White Rice
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro
  • 1 can Black Beans
  • 2 cups Corn
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion
  • 3 large Roma Tomatoes
  • 2 whole Hass Avocados
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream

Method
 

  1. Toss chicken chunks with chipotle adobo, oil, and salt. Let sit for 30 minutes for flavors to penetrate.
  2. Boil rinsed rice in salted water. Once tender, fluff with a fork and fold in fresh cilantro and lime juice.
  3. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken until dark brown edges and a deep crust form.
Mix corn with red onion and cilantro. In a separate bowl, toss tomatoes with salt for the pico de gallo.
  1. Layer rice first, then top with beans, charred chicken, salsas, smooth guacamole, a dollop of sour cream, and a fresh lime wedge.
