Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and lime juice to create a marinade. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  2. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken pieces and cook for 5-7 minutes per side until an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) is reached. Let rest before slicing.
  3. Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add sweet corn and cook for 3-5 minutes until charred, seasoning with salt to taste.
  4. In a small bowl, mix sour cream, mayo, lime juice, garlic powder, and optional cayenne pepper until smooth to prepare the sauce.
  5. Assemble bowls with a base of rice, topped with sliced chicken, charred corn, and drizzled creamy sauce. Garnish with cotija cheese and cilantro.
  6. Optionally add avocado slices on top. Serve and enjoy immediately.
