  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 2 bowls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (grilled, baked, or leftover)
  • ¼ cup honey BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice or quinoa
  • ½ cup corn kernels (grilled, canned, or frozen and steamed)
  • ½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup diced red bell pepper
  • ¼ avocado, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Bake at 400°F for 20–22 minutes or grill for 6–7 minutes per side. Rest for 5 minutes and dice.
  2. Warm honey BBQ sauce and toss with diced chicken until coated.
  3. Layer brown rice or quinoa in a bowl, then add corn, black beans, red bell pepper, and avocado in sections.
  4. Add BBQ chicken to the center. Drizzle extra sauce if desired.
  5. Top with green onions and serve warm or prep for meals.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken and frozen rice for a fast version. Wait to slice avocado until serving to avoid browning.
