Mexican Chicken Rice Bowl
Mexican Chicken Rice Bowl
One of my favorite things to eat at Chili’s is their Fresh Mex Bowls (there are three to choose from). Tonight I assembled a Mexican Chicken Rice Bowl of my own. It was easy to prepare especially since I used my crockpot to cook the chicken. Â The fun thing about making a bowl such as this is that you can make it anything you want it to be.
Ingredients in my bowl:Â
Cooked shredded  chicken (I cooked my boneless skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot on low)
Spices for chicken (I added some salsa, taco seasoning, Cumin, and fresh cilantro to the crockpot)
Cooked rice
Black beans
Shredded cheese
Chopped green pepper
Corn
Fresh Cilantro
Salsa
Sour Cream
Possible other ingredients:Â Ground hamburger, steak, pork, fresh tomato, fresh onion, Jalapeno or banana peppers, avocado, lettuce or fresh greens, crispy tortilla strips or chips
Directions:
- Cook chicken or use Rotisserie chicken.
- Cook rice (I LOVE my rice cooker).
- Cut up any ingredients that need dicing.
- Shred or cube chicken.
- Add rice to the bottom of your bowl.
- Top with other ingredients.
Making these rice bowls was fun. I enjoyed brainstorming ideas for our ingredients, and I look forward to making a variation of this bowl again! Next time I may use taco meat.
did you cook your rice in your slow cooker? thanks. It looks so good.
No I cooked it in a rice cooker.
Looks yummy!! Thanks for sharing đ
Oh my goodness this looks good. I would love this. Your photo is so good, I can almost smell it.
Looks pretty good and healthy. I’ve been trying to eat healthier this year so far.
This looks amazing! I love that it can be edited to your taste preference. The possibilities are endless! Can’t wait to try them. I know my daughter will love them too. đ
I love when you can re-create your favorite restaurant meals at home! So much cheaper and probably healthier that way! My husband loves Mexican so he would love this
I need to eat healthier in 2016 and this look like a great meal towards that goal đ though I’d probably have to cut out the sour cream because of my cholesterol đ
This seriously looks delicious! I may have to make this for lunch, I bet it would be a quick and easy thing to bring to work. Thanks for sharing.
I hope you have the chance to make it sometime!
My favorite thing to order from Chipotle is a burrito bowl, so this is the perfect way to make it at home!
It’s so easy too! Give it a try and thanks for stopping by!
This looks amazing! I love the idea of switching it up with different toppings!!
It’s nice to have options for a family!
Looks delicious. I will have to try it. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome. Thanks for visiting.
Looks so yummy, I love Mexican Rice bowls! I should try out making my own instead of going out to get them!
