This street corn chicken rice bowl recipe combines grilled corn, juicy chicken, and a creamy lime sauce over rice. Quick to prep and packed with flavor.


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups cooked rice

1 1/2 cups cooked chicken (grilled or shredded)

1 cup grilled or roasted corn

1/3 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

1/4 cup Cotija cheese (or feta)

1 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Juice of 1 lime

Salt to taste

Fresh cilantro, green onions, and lime wedges (for garnish)


Instructions

1. Prepare rice and keep warm.

2. In a skillet, sauté corn until lightly charred.

3. Warm chicken if needed, then season with chili powder, paprika, and salt.

4. Mix sour cream, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to create the creamy sauce.

5. Assemble bowls: layer rice, chicken, corn, cheese, and drizzle sauce over top.

Notes

Great for meal prep – keep ingredients separate until serving.

Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.

Swap Cotija with feta or omit for dairy-free.
