Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl

Healthy Fact of the Day

This Street Corn Chicken Rice Bowl is a balanced meal offering protein from chicken, healthy fats from avocado, and fiber from corn and rice. Opt for brown or cauliflower rice for added nutrients and fiber. Using low-fat mayonnaise and sour cream can reduce calories, while fresh lime juice and herbs enhance flavor without added salt.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice)
  • 2 chicken breasts, grilled and sliced (or use rotisserie chicken)
  • 1 cup canned or frozen corn, charred in a skillet
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup crumbled cotija or feta cheese

  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, sliced (optional)
  • 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

     Instructions

  1. Prepare the rice according to package instructions and keep warm.

  2. Grill or cook the chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper, then slice into strips.

  3. Heat a skillet over high heat and char the corn until slightly browned, about 5 minutes.

  4. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, chili powder, smoked paprika, and a squeeze of lime juice.

  5. Assemble the bowl: start with a base of rice, then layer with chicken, charred corn, and avocado slices.

  6. Drizzle the creamy chili-lime sauce over the top.

  7. Sprinkle with cotija cheese, fresh cilantro, and sliced jalapeño, if using.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Coffee contains antioxidants and may support cognitive function and alertness. Mascarpone, while rich, provides calcium and protein. The coffee-soaking technique allows you to infuse intense flavor without excessive sweetness—the bold coffee and cocoa balance the sweet cream beautifully.

Today Is a Double-Deal Day at Shake Shack — Two Free Items, Two Codes

If you’re taking advantage of both Shake Shack deals today, consider splitting one of the burgers with someone rather than eating both back-to-back.

Pairing either sandwich with water instead of a shake keeps the overall meal lighter — and saves room for a small frozen custard if you want to treat yourself on the dessert end instead.
