Honey Lime Chili Hen Bowls.

Honey Lime Chili Hen Bowls. Chili lime-seasoned rooster is roasted on a sheet pan with peppers and onions and served bowl-style with rice, slices of avocado, cilantro, and a dollop of yogurt (or bitter cream)! To complete, drizzle every bowl with my honey-lime French dressing. That is the only dinner to make and comes collectively in beneath 45 minutes.

These bowls type of remind me of burrito bowls, however I like them higher. I ditched the beans (my least favourite ingredient), doubled the onions, and doubled the peppers. As an alternative of salsa, I used my favourite tremendous easy honey-lime French dressing.

The one issues lacking had been a handful of cheese and a aspect of chips, which I truthfully added after the pictures. You may by no means go flawed with some cheese and chips!

Except for that, that is my excellent bowl.

Now that Memorial Day is on the horizon, I’ve positively began to shift my cooking in the direction of extra summery recipes. Although it’s not even near summer time exterior over right here, it’s okay. I can dwell by way of you all for a bit till I make it someplace sunny and heat.

I made this all on a sheet pan, however you might simply grill the rooster, peppers, and onions too. That will be scrumptious as nicely!

Particulars

Step 1: season up the rooster

I used rooster breasts for this bowl, however like all the time, you need to use rooster breasts or thighs. It’s completely as much as you and your desire.

Season the rooster with olive oil, honey, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and chili flakes to style. To save lots of dishes, do that all on a sheet pan.

Step 2: the greens

For the vegetable portion of this bowl, I went basic: onions and peppers. I truly ended up utilizing each purple and orange bell peppers, plus a inexperienced poblano. Use no matter combine you get pleasure from. I’m into orange peppers proper now.

Then an onion, in fact. I don’t suppose you possibly can (or ought to) do a Mexican impressed bowl with out a charred onion.

Roast the rooster, peppers, and onions for 20 to 25 minutes. You need the peppers to begin getting just a little little bit of a char on them.

Step 3: the honey-lime French dressing

Whereas the rooster is cooking, I combine the French dressing. We’re taking a shortcut and utilizing store-bought salsa verde combined with olive oil, honey, and lime. The salsa verde makes for a scrumptious French dressing that feels just a little extra particular.

Step 4: time to construct your bowls

At this level, all you need to do is assemble. You’ll want cooked rice, avocado, cherry tomatoes, numerous cilantro, inexperienced onions in case you’re into them, and a few yogurt or bitter cream.

Slide the rooster over a bowl of rice. Add the onions and peppers. Then I add thinly sliced avocado tossed with lime and sea salt, numerous cilantro, inexperienced onion, and a dollop of yogurt over every bowl. As I discussed above, cheese can be particularly scrumptious. I’d add numerous crumbled cheese. I really like to make use of cotija, however feta or cubes of cheddar are nice substitutes.

Prime every bowl with the French dressing and possibly an additional sprinkle of sea salt. This will likely be a enjoyable household dinner!
