Ingredients

Protein 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 tsp salt Vegetables & Legumes
1½ yellow onions, sliced
2 red bell peppers, sliced
2 green bell peppers, sliced
2 poblano peppers, sliced
1–2 jalapeños, thinly sliced (optional)
2 (15 oz) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups roasted corn
2 large tomatoes, diced
2 avocados, sliced
Finishing Juice of 2 limes
Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Directions

Season the Chicken In a bowl, toss chicken with oil and all spices. Let sit 10 minutes.
Cook the Chicken In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook chicken for 5–6 minutes or until fully cooked. Set aside.
Cook the Vegetables In the same skillet, sauté onion and all peppers until charred and softened, about 8 minutes.
Warm the Beans & Corn Heat beans and corn in a saucepan or microwave until warmed through.
Assemble the Bowls In each bowl, layer beans, corn, a generous scoop of vegetables, and chicken.
Top with tomatoes, avocado, lime juice, and cilantro.

Protein Flip Note: By keeping the meat portion the same but doubling the vegetables, this bowl feels bigger, adds more fiber, and brings a richer mix of colors and flavors — no grain base needed.
