Step 1

In a large bowl, combine all of the chicken ingredients and using tongs, toss until well combined. Cover and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can marinate the chicken ahead of time in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, avocado oil and 1 1/2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat so that it is just simmering, about medium-low heat, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep covered to allow the rice to continue to steam, 10 more minutes.

Step 3

When done steaming, stir in the cilantro and lime juice and season with salt to taste. Cover and keep warm.

Step 4

In a small bowl, stir together the tahini, greek yogurt, tamari, and lemon juice until smooth. One tablespoon at a time, add warm water to thin out the dressing as needed– you want it to be creamy and thick, but still drippy enough to drizzle. I usually only need about 1-2 tablespoons, but this will depend on the consistency of your tahini. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Set Aside.

Step 5

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest while you cook the onions.

Step 6

Reduce the heat in the skillet to medium and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are tender and golden on the edges, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

To assemble the bowls, divide the rice amongst 4 bowls. Slice the chicken and divide among the bowls along with the onions, monterey jack cheese, spring greens, and roma tomatoes. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with the tahini sauce.
