Street Corn Chicken Bowls
Street Corn Chicken Bowls provide a wonderful balance of textures and flavors.
The chicken breast pairs perfectly with sweet corn kernels, while the rice adds a filling base.
The street corn includes fresh cilantro, red onions, and spices like smoked paprika and cumin ensuring that each bite is bursting with flavor.

Corn: You can use fresh, frozen, or canned. I used frozen corn that was thawed and it was delicious.
Cilantro: If you don’t like cilantro you can use parsley instead.
Red onion: This helps to add flavor and crunch. If you don’t have red onion you could use green onions.
Cheese: Typically Mexican Street Corn Salad is made with cotija cheese. I used queso fresco because it’s lower in points.
The dressing: I used light mayonnaise, fat free sour cream, fresh garlic, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Chicken: I used boneless skinless chicken breast because it is 0 points.
Rice: You can use white rice or brown rice.

How to Make Street Corn Chicken Bowls
Add the light mayonnaise, fat free sour cream, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to a mixing bowl. Stir until it is combined.
I used frozen corn that I let thaw completely. Add the corn to a large mixing bowl.
Break apart the queso fresco cheese, it will easily crumble. Add the cheese to the bowl with the corn.
Add the chopped red onion and cilantro to the the corn and cheese. Pour the dressing over it and stir to combine.
Place 1 cup of cooked rice in a bowl and add the juice from 1/2 lime and 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro. Stir together.
I used two chicken breasts from a rotisserie chicken. You could also season and cook your own.
Assemble the bowls by adding 1/2 cup rice, one chicken breast, and half of the street corn to each bowl.
Serving Suggestions
Avocados are rich in healthy fats and offer a smooth texture that pairs well with the other ingredients. A couple of slices of avocado on top would be a great addition.
If you prefer a bit more heat, you can add some chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
For those who love extra crunch, topping the bowls with crushed tortilla chips or toasted corn kernels can add an exciting texture contrast.
