Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced
  • 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (divided)
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp honey (for sauce)

Instructions

  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (375°F). Remove chicken from marinade and discard excess liquid. Grill each breast for about 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Let rest before slicing.
  3. Prepare rice according to package instructions while the chicken grills.
  4. Slice avocados, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In bowls, layer rice first, then top with grilled chicken slices, avocado, cucumber slices, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and honey for added flavor.
