Ingredients

For the Chicken:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
For the Corn:

2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
For the Garnish:

2 jalapeños, thinly sliced
For the Creamy Sauce:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken cubes with olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
Grill the Chicken: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken cubes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Cook the Corn: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add corn and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Make the Creamy Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Assemble the Bowls: Divide the corn among bowls. Top with grilled chicken and sliced jalapeños. Drizzle generously with the Creamy Sauce.

Notes

You can use any type of chicken you like for this recipe.
For a spicier sauce, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Creamy Sauce.
Serve the bowls with your favorite side dishes, such as rice, quinoa, or a green salad.
