Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by mixing olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Rub this mixture over the chicken and let it sit for about 10 minutes.

  3. Prepare brown rice or quinoa as per package instructions. Rinse black beans, chop cherry tomatoes and onion, and wash greens.
  4. Assemble each bowl starting with a base of grains, followed by corn, black beans, tomatoes, onion, greens, and sliced chicken on top.
  5. Drizzle ranch dressing mixed with BBQ sauce over the assembled bowls and add optional garnishes like cilantro or green onions.
