Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, chipotle sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
Marinate the chicken in the mixture for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours) in the refrigerator.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6–7 minutes on each side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
Assemble each bowl by layering rice, black beans, grilled chicken slices, diced avocado, and any additional toppings you desire.
