Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

For the rice
1 1/2 c. basmati rice
Kosher salt
1/2 c. roughly chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 tsp. olive oil
For the cilantro-lime aioli
1/4 c. mayonnaise
2 tbsp. finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus more leaves for serving
1 tbsp. minced jalapeño
1 1/2 tsp. fresh lime juice
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
For the bowl
2 tbsp. olive oil
3 c. Tyson® Grilled & Ready® Chicken Breast Strips
2 c. frozen or fresh corn kernels
1 1/2 tsp. taco seasoning
1 (15-oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 avocado, sliced
1 1/2 c. cherry tomatoes, quartered

Steps:

  • Make rice: In a medium saucepan, combine the rice with 1 3/4 cup water and ½ teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 17 minutes.
  • Remove rice from the heat and let cool slightly. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil.
  • Meanwhile, make aioli: In a medium bowl, whisk mayonnaise with cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, garlic powder and 2 teaspoons of water. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium. Add Tyson® Grilled & Ready® chicken breast strips and cook, tossing occasionally, until warm, about 4 minutes. Remove to a plate.
  • Return the skillet to medium and add the corn. Cook corn, tossing occasionally, until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Scrape onto a plate.
  • Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil to skillet and taco seasoning. Cook over medium, stirring constantly, until spices are toasted and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the black beans and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are warm, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Fill 4 shallow bowls with rice. Top with corn, black beans, tomatoes, avocado, and chicken breast strips. Drizzle each bowl with aioli and garnish with cilantro.

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 2h34m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb. chicken breasts (boneless skinless)
3 cups rice (cooked)
1 cup carrots (cut into matchsticks)
1 cup sugar snap peas (cut in half)
1/2 cup scallions (finely chopped)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together orange juice, olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, orange zest, salt, sugar, and pepper.
  • Place chicken in a zip-top bag and add 3 tablespoons of the citrus dressing. Seal bag and flip a few times to make sure the chicken is fully coated. Marinate in refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
  • Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Take chicken out of bag and dab any excess marinade on a paper towel. If the chicken is dripping with marinade when it goes on the grill, chances are it will burn. Grill chicken 7-8 minutes on each side or until chicken reaches 165° F. Remove from grill and slice thinly on the bias.
  • In a large bowl, combine rice, carrots, sugar snap peas, and scallions. Add 4 tablespoons of the citrus dressing and gently toss to combine.
  • Serve chicken over rice and drizzle with remaining dressing, if desired.

CHICKEN RICE BOWL



Chicken Rice Bowl image

This chicken rice bowl recipe is so easy to toss together on a busy weeknight, and I usually have the ingredients already on hand. I start sauteing the onion and pepper first, then I prepare the instant rice. If you like, top it with some shredded sharp cheddar cheese. -Tammy Daniels, Batavia, Ohio
