# Instructions:
01 -
Mix together the honey, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken with this and let it sit and soak up flavors for no less than 15 minutes.
02 -
Using a pan or a grill on medium-high heat, cook the chicken for around 6-7 minutes per side. Make sure it's cooked all the way through, with no pink in the center. Take it off the heat and give it a quick rest, then slice it up.
03 -
Stir your cooked rice, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until everything’s combined.
04 -
Put the avocado slices in another bowl. Drizzle over the lime juice, sprinkle some salt and grind a bit of pepper on top. This’ll help keep them looking fresh.
05 -
Grab a plate and start layering. First the rice, then some of the chicken slices, followed by the avocado. If there’s extra dressing left, pour it on top.
