Similar to the Chicken burrito bowl in the Chipotle restaurant.

Rich in ingredients, comprehensive nutrition, healthy and delicious, it is very suitable for student parties and office workers to make meal prep.

The fragrant and slightly grilled fried chicken is paired with a variety of fresh and sweet vegetables.
The taste and texture are rich in layers, and a healthy meal is so delicious that one bowl is not enough.

Xiaolong was still enthusiastic about bringing meals for 3 consecutive days. He even made sure that there was no stock in the refrigerator when he entered the door.
I have to say that this is a good point for him, and it can also be counted as a foodie.

Replace the sour cream in the traditional burrito bowl with kefir yogurt,
Use nutritional yeast powder instead of cheese.

The low-carbon version can use cauliflower rice instead of rice, practice:

The unit of measurement used is the standard baking measuring cup and measuring spoon unit.
1 cup = 240 ml
1 tablespoon = 1 tablespoon = 15ml (ml)
1 teaspoon = 1 teaspoon = 5ml (ml)
1/2 teaspoon = 2.5ml (ml)
1/4 teaspoon = 1.25ml (ml)

Mexican Chicken Rice丨healthy·three Meals

1. [Marinated chicken]
The chicken is evenly cut into small cubes of 1 cm square, the smaller the size, the easier it is to taste.

Mix with all the ingredients of the fried chicken part, mix well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

The longer the marinade, the better the taste. (If marinated for a long time, keep refrigerated)

2. 【Boiled brown rice】
Put brown rice and water in a small pot, the amount of water is less than the depth of a fingernail of the rice.
After the high heat is boiled, turn to the minimum heat for 45-50 minutes.

3. 【Boiled black beans】
Boil the black beans with water for 1-2 minutes, turn off the heat, cover the pot and cover for about 20 minutes, boil the water again, turn off the heat, and continue to suffocate for 20 minutes. Generally speaking, the black beans are soft. Time is flexible, increase or decrease appropriately.

Easy way: black beans can also be canned cooked black beans bought in the supermarket, pay attention to the salt content inside.

4. 【Fried Chicken】
Heat the non-stick pan (or cast iron pan or All Clad stainless steel pan is best), add a small amount of olive oil, pour in the marinated chicken, spread the chicken evenly with a spatula, don't rush to stir fry.

Wait until the bottom surface of the chicken is in contact with the pan and you can see the discoloration, and then stir fry until the chicken is completely discolored.

Taste the taste and season with salt as appropriate.

5. 【combination】
Place a layer of brown rice and black beans in a bowl, top with fried chicken, bibimbap and seasonal vegetables.

Sprinkle lime juice (or white vinegar), yogurt, nutritional yeast powder (or cheese), and hot sauce on the surface.

Stir to your heart's content and start eating.
Season properly with salt, black pepper, and olive oil.

6. [Pay attention to bringing meals]
Tomatoes, lettuce, and other vegetables that are prone to water, it is best to cut them, put them in different small boxes, and assemble them on the day they are eaten.

Tips:
1. The hot sauce I used Frank's RedHot original

2. The photo looks fresh, but it is actually quite strong because of the many spices.
If there are too many ingredients and spices, and the family is not complete, can you omit XX? The ingredients given in the ingredients are to reflect the Mexican flavor as much as possible. This is a question of flexibility. If you omit a few of them, chicken rice is still chicken rice, but the taste is different, but as long as you like it, it’s okay.

3. Brown rice can be replaced with white rice; black beans are best cooked until they are soft.

4. After making it, divide it into airtight containers and keep it in refrigerator for 1-2 days.

5. You can omit the fresh onion diced if you bring the lunch to work. As long as the colleague has no objection, it can be omitted.
