Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Rub the sweet potato wedges with 1 tbsp oil, season and bake for 20 mins, or until tender but slightly crisp at the edges. Cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, then briefly fry the garlic and most of the onion. Add the chicken and fry for another 7-10 mins, or until the chicken is cooked through. Add the vinegar, honey and black beans and stir to combine, then cook for 2 mins. Add the rice from the pouch, breaking it up as you stir, and warm everything through for 5 mins.
• Divide the rice mixture between two shallow bowls. Combine the tomato, remaining onion, the lime juice and zest and the coriander. Arrange half of the avocado over each bowl along with half of the sweet potato wedges. Spoon on some of the salsa and top with some tortilla strips. Serve with hot sauce and lime wedges, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
• Grill chicken until no longer pink in the center and cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cut chicken into strips or bite-sized pieces.
• Warm corn and black beans in separate saucepans over medium-low heat, covered, until heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Layer cooked rice, corn, black beans, and chicken on 2 serving plates. Top with Monterey Jack cheese, lettuce, salsa, and sour cream.

Steps:

• In a plastic bag, place chicken thighs and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the chipotle powder, garlic powder, cumin, and salt. Seal the plastic bag and massage the meat until fully coated. Transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the marinated chicken thighs in the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Cube the chicken thighs on a cutting board and set aside.
• In a large bowl, place cooked brown rice, and top the chopped chicken thighs, green peppers, cherry tomatoes, black beans, corns, red onions, and cilantro.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lime juice, and season with salt and pepper over the bowl.
• Toss until well mixed.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine the chicken breasts, diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup of chicken stock, chili powder, salt, and cumin in the bowl of a 2 1/2- to 3 1/2-quart slow cooker. Make sure the chicken is covered, and add additional stock if needed. Cover with the lid and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours.
• Remove the lid and add the rice, black beans, frozen corn, and the remaining chicken broth. Replace the lid and continue cooking on low for another 3 to 4 hours. Check the rice periodically in the last hour of cooking, stirring once or twice to make sure the rice cooks evenly and adding more chicken broth if the mixture seems dry. Cooking is done when the rice is tender - if the rice is done while there is still liquid left in the slow cooker, remove the lid and cook on high to let the liquid evaporate.
• → Total cooking time from start to finish is 6 to 8 hours.
• Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. You can do this either in the slow cooker itself and then mix it into the rice, or you can transfer the chicken to a cutting board if you prefer to keep it separate. Taste the burrito mix and stir in more salt or other seasonings to taste.
• Serve burrito bowls with a selection of toppings. The burrito mixture will keep for 1 week refrigerated or for 3 months in the freezer. This recipe makes about 7 total cups of burrito mix.

• Place the chicken, peppers, and onions onto the baking sheet and drizzle with oil.

• Sprinkle salt and pepper on the bell peppers and onions, tossing to coat.
• Top each chicken breast with a generous pour of salsa.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes.
