Hungry Girl's Mexi-licious Chipotle Chicken Bowl

Chicken Bowl for the Hungry Soul
Scoot over, ordinary chicken meals. This here bowl may soon be your new BFF!

Prep: 15 minutes
Marinate: 30 minutes
Cook: 10 minutes

Ingredients:
One 4-oz. raw boneless skinless chicken breast cutlet, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness
Dash each salt and black pepper
2 tbsp. finely chopped cilantro
1 tbsp. plus 2 tsp. lime juice
2 tbsp. light sour cream
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
3 tbsp. pico de gallo with 90mg sodium or less per 2-tbsp. serving
3 tbsp. canned black beans, drained and rinsed
3 tbsp. frozen sweet corn kernels, thawed
1 1/2 tsp. chopped chipotle pepper, previously packed in adobo sauce (or HG Alternative)
1 cup chopped romaine lettuce
1/2 oz. sliced avocado (about 1/8th of an avocado)
2 tbsp. reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
3 baked tortilla chips, lightly crushed

Directions:
Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place in wide medium bowl. Add 1 tbsp. each cilantro and lime juice. Flip chicken to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a small bowl, combine sour cream, cumin, and 1 tsp. lime juice. Mix well, and refrigerate.

To make the salsa, in a medium bowl, combine pico de gallo, black beans, corn, and chipotle pepper. Add remaining 1 tbsp. cilantro and 1 tsp. lime juice. Mix well, and refrigerate.

Bring a grill pan (or skillet) sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Add chicken, and discard excess marinade. Cook for about 5 minutes per side, until cooked through. Once cool enough to handle, slice into strips.

Place lettuce in a medium bowl. Top with salsa, chicken, avocado, and cheese. Drizzle with dressing (or serve dressing on the side). Top with crushed chips.

Fight it!
Chili's Chipotle Fresh Mex Bowl with Grilled Chicken

Not-So-Super Bowl
Menu items like this make us sad. Entrées that sound incredibly tasty and super healthy seem like the holy grail, and calorie-conscious foodies are thrilled to find 'em. So thrilled, in fact, that they might not bother to look at the nutritional info. "Fresh Mex? Great! House-made salsa, grilled chicken, fresh field greens... I'll take it!" But look a little closer... This bowl also has cheddar cheese, rice, crispy tortilla strips, and sour cream. But those items couldn't make things that bad, right? Wrong-o. This Fresh Mex meal has close to 900 calories, and nearly 40 grams of fat... So disappointing! What's not disappointing is how much of a no-brainer it was for us to lighten it up. We went the rice-free route, swapped out some ingredients, and perfected the proportions... Easy! Make this recipe at home, and consult our Chili's Survival Guide the next time you hit the Tex-Mex chain.
