Instructions
Creating the Easy Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl is as simple as following these clear steps:
1. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Sauté the Aromatics: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
4. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the chicken evenly with the spices.
5. Add Corn: Stir in the sweet corn and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the corn to heat through.
6. Combine Rice: Add the cooked rice to the skillet. Mix everything together until thoroughly combined, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors.
7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning as needed.
8. Serve Hot: Remove from heat and transfer the mixture to bowls or serve family-style.
9. Garnish: Top with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
