Ingredients
  

1 cup jasmine rice

2 cups chicken broth

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup corn kernels (fresh or canned)

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1 avocado, sliced

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

    Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken thighs, and season with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 7-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove from heat.

      Make the Street Corn Sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together the corn, mayonnaise, lime juice, and half of the cotija cheese. Stir well until the corn is evenly coated. Set aside.

        Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, start with a generous scoop of the fluffy jasmine rice. Top it with the cooked chicken. Spoon the street corn mixture over the chicken.

          Garnish and Serve: Finish with slices of avocado, a sprinkle of the remaining cotija cheese, and a handful of fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
