Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons chipotle sauce (adjust for spice preference)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 avocado, sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

¼ cup chopped cilantro

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, chipotle sauce, soy sauce, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

    Place the chicken thighs into a resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag, ensuring the chicken is well-coated, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor).

      Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once done, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.

        While the chicken is resting, prepare your rice bowls. Start with a base of cooked jasmine rice in each bowl.

          Layer the black beans and corn on top of the rice, followed by sliced avocado and halved cherry tomatoes.

            Slice the grilled chicken thighs and place them on top of the veggies.

              Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and add a wedge of lime for squeezing over the top.

                Drizzle any remaining marinade over the chicken if desired for extra flavor.

                  Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Honey Chipotle Chicken Rice Bowls!
