Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons lime juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup cooked jasmine rice

1 ripe avocado, diced

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 tablespoon olive oil

Juice of 1 lime

1/4 teaspoon chili powder (optional)

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine honey, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours for more flavor.

    Cook the Chicken: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Remove chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and grill or cook in the skillet for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.

      Prepare the Avocado Rice: In a separate bowl, combine the cooked jasmine rice with diced avocado, chopped cilantro, halved cherry tomatoes, olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, and chili powder (if using). Toss gently to mix and avoid mashing the avocado.

        Assemble the Stack: Start by placing a scoop of the avocado rice mixture onto a plate as the base. Top with slices of grilled honey lime chicken, and add another scoop of the avocado rice mix on top. Repeat this process to create a stack, depending on how tall you want it.

          Serve: Garnish with lime wedges and additional cilantro if desired. Enjoy your vibrant and flavorful Honey Lime Chicken & Avocado Rice Stack!
