Chicken Fajita Burrito Bowls offer a lighter, healthier take on traditional burritos, featuring seasoned chicken, sautéed veggies, and fresh toppings like guacamole, pico de gallo, and a zesty cilantro lime dressing. Perfect for a quick, flavorful meal.

Ingredients

1 pound chicken fajitas, cooked and warm

2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice)

4 cups lettuce, sliced

1 cup pico de gallo (or diced tomatoes)

1 cup guacamole (or 1 avocado, diced)

1/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup cilantro lime dressing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rice: Cook the rice according to package instructions. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Warm the chicken: If using pre-cooked chicken fajitas, reheat them along with sautéed peppers and onions in a skillet for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.
  3. Assemble the bowls: Place a bed of rice in each bowl. Layer with sliced lettuce, warm chicken fajitas, and sautéed peppers and onions.
  4. Top the bowls: Add pico de gallo, guacamole, and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chicken.
  5. Drizzle with dressing: Drizzle cilantro lime dressing over the bowl and garnish with fresh cilantro.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For a low-carb version, swap rice with cauliflower rice.

Feel free to swap chicken for grilled shrimp, steak, or tofu.

Add extra heat by topping with jalapeños or hot sauce.
