Description

A delicious and vibrant dish that combines grilled chicken, sweet corn, and creamy elote sauce served over fluffy rice, perfect for busy weeknights or festive gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Set it aside once it’s fluffy.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of oil and cook the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.
  3. Add the sweet corn to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  4. Stir in the creamy elote sauce, mixing well until all ingredients are nicely coated.
  5. Serve the chicken and corn mixture generously over the fluffy white rice.
  6. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Enjoy!

Notes

For a creamier texture, drizzle extra elote sauce on top before serving and consider adding crunchy tortilla strips for texture.
