Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked rice Use leftover rice or quickly steam fresh rice for convenience.

  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1 number avocado, diced Select ripe avocados for creaminess.

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice and shredded chicken until well-mixed and evenly distributed.
  2. Toss in the corn, diced red bell pepper, red onion, and chopped cilantro for a sensational burst of color, flavor, and texture.
  3. Generously squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture, then season with salt and pepper to your preference.
  4. Gently fold the ingredients together, ensuring the avocado doesn’t mash while evenly dispersing the flavors.
  5. Serve the hearty mixture in individual bowls, beautifully topped with diced avocado and your choice of optional toppings like cheese, jalapeños, or a dollop of sour cream.

Notes

For any leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of lime juice to freshen it up. You can prepare the ingredients in advance and combine them before serving.
