Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 2 cups water
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 cup crumbled Cotija cheese

  • Chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to season

Instructions

  1. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  6. Sauté the corn in the same skillet for about 5 minutes until it starts to caramelize.
  7. Mix the sautéed corn with mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), juice of lime, Cotija cheese, and cilantro in a bowl.
  8. Build your bowls starting with rice, topped with sliced chicken and street corn mixture. Garnish with lime wedges and cilantro.
