Cut the chicken breasts into 2 cm cubes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Cook the chicken
Heat the oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and brown it for 5 min, stirring. Set aside.
Cook the rice
In the saucepan, bring 250 ml of water to a boil. Add the rice, lower the heat and cook covered for 15 min without touching it. Turn off the heat and let it rest for 5 min.
Tip · For perfect rice, never lift the lid while it cooks. Letting the steam escape throws off the cooking.
Warm the beans
Drain the black beans and warm them for 2 min in the skillet with a pinch of cumin for flavor.
Prep the vegetables
Peel the tomato and cut it into small cubes. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh out in cubes. Drizzle with the lime juice.
Build the bowls
Divide the rice between two bowls. Add the chicken, beans, drained corn, tomato and avocado. Sprinkle with half of the shredded cheddar.
Tip · For a crispier bowl, toast the cheddar in the skillet for 1 min over low heat before putting it on the bowl.
Melt the cheese
Preheat the oven to 200 °C on broil. Sprinkle the rest of the cheddar over each bowl and slide them under the broiler for 2 min until the cheese melts.
