- 3 tsp Olive oil divided

- 1/2 Red onion diced
- 1 cup Black beans rinsed and drained
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes halved
- 1/2 cup Cilantro avocado dressing Bolthouse Farms
Instructions
Cook the Rice
- Add the rice, water, and 1 teaspoon of olive oil to a medium saucepan.
- Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once it’s boiling, cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and immediately reduce the heat to low.
- Allow the rice to simmer for about 20 minutes, or until it’s fully cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Prep the Chicken While Rice Cooks
- Preheat air fryer to 400 °F
- Chop the chicken into bite-sized chunks.
- Toss the chicken with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp chili lime seasoning until evenly coated.
- Air fry the chicken at 400°F for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Prep Toppings While Chicken Cooks
- Dicing the red onion and chopping the cilantro.
- Rinse and drain the black beans.
- Warm the corn: if you’re using canned, microwave it for 1 minute. If you’re using frozen corn, heat it for about 2 minutes until fully warmed through.
Finish the Rice
- Once the rice finishes cooking, remove the lid and fluff it with a fork to release the steam.
- Stir in the minced garlic, remaining 2 tsp olive oil, chili lime seasoning, and chopped cilantro.
- Mix everything together until the rice is evenly coated and well combined
Assemble the Bowls
- Start by adding a layer of seasoned rice to the bottom.
- Top with the cooked chicken, followed by the warm corn, black beans, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
- Drizzle everything with cilantro avocado dressing for a fresh, flavorful finish.
