1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Juice of 1 lime
For the Bowl:
2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cilantro-lime rice)
1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
1/2 cup fresh jalapeños, sliced (adjust based on spice preference)
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

For the Creamy Sauce:

📝 Directions:

In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, hot sauce (if using), salt, and pepper until smooth. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
3️⃣ Assemble the Bowls:
Divide the cooked rice between bowls. Top with sliced grilled chicken, corn kernels, jalapeños, red onion, and avocado slices.
