Chicken and Marinade
- 1 3/4 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, excess fat trimmed
- 1/3 cup red onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil, plus more for grilling
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 1 chipotle in adobo sauce
- 1 tbsp sauce from chipotles in adobo
- 1 tsp each: smoked paprika, Mexican oregano, cumin
- 3/4 tsp sea salt
Bowl Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded lettuce (200 grams)
- 3 cups Copycat Chipotle Corn Salsa (24 fl oz)
- 1 1/2 cups Copycat Chipotle Guacamole (12 fl oz)
- 1 1/4 cups dry jasmine rice, cooked according to package directions (231 grams)
- 1 15.5 oz can Bush's Best Chili Beans Black Beans with Mild Chili Sauce
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (112 grams)
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Add all Chicken and Marinade ingredients except the chicken thighs to a food processor and pulse until the onion is pureed and the ingredients are well combined. Pour marinade over trimmed chicken thighs, toss to coat evenly, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hrs or up to overnight.
- Pre-heat grill to 425°F (though anywhere between 400-450° will work). Once pre-heated, use grill tongs and a bunched up paper towel to brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Add the marinated chicken thighs to the oiled grill grates and grill for about 6 minutes per side or until cooked through.
- Remove chicken from the grill and rest for at least 5 minutes before chopping into bite sized pieces.
- Toss the cooked rice with lime juice and cilantro, then layer into the bottom of serving bowls. Add black beans, chicken, and remaining toppings before serving.
