02 - 1/4 cup honey

03 - 2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced

04 - 2 tablespoons olive oil

05 - 3 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or jasmine)

06 - 1 red bell pepper, diced

# Instructions:

01 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Remove and set aside.

02 - In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil, honey, and chipotle peppers. Stir well and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

03 - Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss in the honey chipotle sauce until fully coated. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

04 - Assemble the rice bowls by dividing the cooked rice among four bowls. Top with chicken, bell peppers, corn, black beans, avocado, and fresh cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over each bowl and serve immediately.

# Notes:

01 - Great for meal prep - keep sauce separate until ready to serve

02 - Can use any type of rice or substitute with quinoa
