  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 avocado, sliced

Instructions

  2. In a bowl, toss chicken thighs with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper.
  3. Arrange chicken in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through and juices run clear. Let rest for 5 minutes, then shred or dice.

  6. Top with shredded chicken, black beans, corn, and salsa.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • Feel free to add your favorite toppings like pickled jalapeños or a squeeze of lime.
  • These bowls are great for meal prep. Store components separately and assemble just before eating to keep everything fresh.
