Scale

- 2 cups Cilantro Lime Rice
- 1 recipe Easy Corn Salsa
- 15 ounce can black beans, lightly drained
- 4 cups shredded romaine lettuce
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 recipe Chipotle Guacamole
- 1/2 cup sour cream, garnish
- 1 lime, cut into wedges, for serving
- For the Fresh Tomato Salsa:
- 2 to 3 medium tomatoes, 1 to 1 1/2 pounds, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 3 jalapeño peppers, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the individual recipes listed in the ingredients according to the directions.
- Warm the black beans in a small saucepan over low heat.
- For the Fresh Tomato Salsa, combine the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and jalapeño peppers in a small bowl. Squeeze the lemon and lime juice over the top and season with salt, to taste. Toss lightly. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Assemble the bowls by dividing the cilantro lime rice, lettuce, chicken and beans between 4 salad bowls.
- Garnish each bowl with cheese, guacamole, corn salsa, fresh tomato salsa, and sour cream. Serve the bowls with lime wedges, if desired.
Notes
- The chicken can be marinated for up to 8 hours or even frozen in the marinade.
- The corn salsa and fresh tomato salsa can both be made up to a day in advance. Transfer them to airtight containers and refrigerate until needed.
- Start cooking the rice just before you cook the chicken. If you want to make it in advance, sprinkle it with a little water to refresh and rehydrate it before gently warming in the microwave or on the stove.
- Chop the lettuce and shred the cheese, transfer them to zippered plastic storage bags and pop them in the fridge up to a day in advance.
