1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon lime juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro or green onions (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cooked rice and cooked chicken. Mix well to ensure they are evenly distributed.

    Add the Corn: Stir in the canned or fresh corn into the rice and chicken mixture.

      Season: Sprinkle chili powder, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and pepper over the mixture. Toss everything together until well combined and flavored.

        Heat Up: If desired, transfer the mixture to a skillet over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes to warm it through, stirring occasionally. This step is optional if you prefer a cold bowl.

          Serve: Transfer the mixture to bowls and top with crumbled cotija or feta cheese, if using. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or sliced green onions for a burst of freshness.
