Chicken Burrito Bowl


Description

A comforting Chicken Burrito Bowl featuring succulent chicken, vibrant vegetables, and creamy avocado, drizzled with a zesty cilantro lime dressing.


Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup salsa (your choice of heat)
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • Cilantro lime dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • Cooked rice or quinoa (as a base)
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts in your slow cooker and pour the salsa over the top, ensuring the chicken is well-coated.
  2. Add the black beans and corn, then sprinkle with salt and pepper for seasoning.
  3. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for about 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender.
  4. Shred the chicken using two forks and mix it with the salsa and beans.
  5. Spoon the mixture over bowls of rice or quinoa.
  6. Top with diced avocado and drizzle generously with cilantro lime dressing.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, swap out the chicken for tofu or increase the beans. Consider adding toppings like shredded cheese or sliced jalapeños for extra flavor.
