1 tsp chili powder
½ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
¾ cup crumbled Cotija or Feta cheese

Instructions

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and chili powder. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/75°C).
While the chicken cooks, prepare the corn salsa by mixing corn, diced onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Slice the cooked chicken and serve it over rice or quinoa in bowls. Top with corn salsa.
Drizzle sour cream over each bowl and sprinkle with cheese. Add tortilla chips if desired.
