Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup corn kernels (frozen or canned)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, avocado, salsa, Greek yogurt or sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Rub seasoning all over the chicken.
  3. Place chicken on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. Let rest, then slice or dice.
  4. While chicken cooks, prepare other ingredients: cook rice, chop vegetables, and rinse beans and corn.
  5. Divide rice evenly among 4 containers. Top with equal portions of beans, corn, tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and chicken.
  6. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges. Add optional toppings if desired before serving.
  7. Seal containers and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Notes

  • For added flavor, marinate chicken with spices and lime juice for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Substitute quinoa for rice for a protein boost.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes before eating.
