Receta 30 Minute Skinny Chicken Burrito Bowl

I have to start by telling you… this is AMAZING!!! I really really enjoyed this 30 Minute Skinny Chicken Burrito Bowl. The flavors are bright, fresh and yes healthy too!! Sure you hear burrito and typically think overstuffed tortilla packed with filling, super cheesy and can be really greasy too. This is my take on the burrito but way lighter so dig right in and enjoy!
Aside from Italian, I think that Mexican cuisine is next at the top of my list of foods I love to eat and cook at home. My boys frequently ask for taco nights and I am more then happy to whip it up for them. This 30 Minute Skinny Chicken Burrito Bowl is my way to make taco night lighter for myself and my husband while the kiddos enjoy their tacos.
I have to say, this really is pretty budget friendly too. 1 chicken breast per person, a can or organic beans split between the two of us, 2 bell peppers,a little onion, brown rice and an avocado. Oh can’t forget that squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving, it really elevates everything. Grab the quick cooking brown rice and let that go while you cook everything else. The chicken breasts are diced then tossed with a little olive oil and taco seasoning and cooked in a skillet. Remove the chicken then sauté the peppers and onion right in the same pan.
Really this meal comes together so easily. Just before serving everything i add the chicken, peppers and onions & the beans to the same pan just to warm them through. Serve over the hot rice and add the diced avocado. Finish with lime and dinner is served!
