I found this recipe online, a tweaked it a little bit, and I am obsessed! I shortened my version for quick reference so you don’t need to read through multiple pages, but HERE is the original recipe.

INSTRUCTIONS

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHICKEN:

Add all of the marinade ingredients into a bowl and combine. Add in the chicken strips and let marinade for at least 15 minutes. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of avocado oil. Add marinated chicken into the pan until cooked through, about 5 minutes.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CILANTRO-LIME RICE:

Boil the water and add salt. Add the rice to the pot once boiling and then simmer on low for 20 minutes, until rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and then add in the lime juice, cilantro, and additional salt to taste.

Assemble

Arrange the rice and lettuce in the bottom of the serving bowl and top with chicken, diced tomatoes, diced avocados, corn, black beans, and red onions. Dish can be served both hot or cold according to preference.
