Instructions
 

  • In a food processor, blend the chipotle peppers, garlic, onion powder, dried oregano, oil, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste. Add water if you think it's too thick.
  • Place chicken in a resealable bag and add the marinade. Close the bag and massage the chicken to make sure it is well coated. Store in the fridge for at least 2-4 hours.
  • Grill the chicken on medium high heat for 6-7 minutes per side on until it's no longer pink. You can also use a grill pan on the stove top if you don't have a grill. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes and then chop into bite sized pieces.
  • Drain and rinse the beans and warm them up on medium heat. If you want, you can add some chicken stock and season with salt, pepper and cumin to taste.
  • To assemble, serve equal portions of rice, beans, chicken, pico de gallo and guacamole in each bowl. You can also add sour cream, shredded cheese and lettuce.
