Ingredients
  

1 cup jasmine rice

2 cups chicken broth

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon cumin

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

½ cup crumbled cotija cheese

¼ cup cilantro, chopped

1 lime, juiced

1 avocado, sliced

Spicy mayo (1 tablespoon mayo mixed with ½ teaspoon sriracha)

Instructions
 

Cook the Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

    Prepare the Chicken: While the rice cooks, season the chicken thighs with paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper.

      Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken thighs and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from skillet and rest for a few minutes before slicing.

        Sauté the Corn: In the same skillet, add corn kernels and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they are lightly charred. Season with a pinch of salt.

          Assemble the Bowl: To serve, start with a base of rice in each bowl. Top with sliced chicken, sautéed corn, crumbled cotija cheese, avocado slices, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

            Finish it Off: Drizzle fresh lime juice over the entire bowl and add a dollop of spicy mayo for an extra kick.
