Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chicken is well coated with the seasoning.

Step 2

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.

Step 3

Once the air fryer is preheated, place the seasoned chicken pieces in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook the chicken in batches to ensure even cooking.

Step 4

Air fry the chicken at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Give the basket a shake halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 5

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the cooked brown rice or quinoa, black beans, corn kernels, diced bell peppers, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well mixed.

Step 6

To assemble the burrito bowls, divide the rice or quinoa mixture among serving bowls. Top each bowl with the air-fried chicken pieces.

Step 7

Add your choice of optional toppings, such as sliced avocado, low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt, salsa or pico de gallo, shredded lettuce or cabbage, and shredded low-fat cheese.
