Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Add half the Tex-Mex paste, 1 1/4 cups water, 1/4 tsp salt and 1 tbsp butter (dbl all for 4 ppl) to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Meanwhile, zest half the lime, if desired. (TIP: You can skip zesting the lime for less prep!)Juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges. Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Pat chicken dry with paper towels. On a separate cutting board, cut chicken into 1-inch pieces. (TIP: Use kitchen shears to cut chicken with ease!)Add chicken, remaining Tex-Mex paste and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to the prepared sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Arrange chicken in a single layer. Bake in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 10-12 min.**
Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then corn. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden-brown or 'charred', 5-6 min.Remove from heat.
Add corn, tomatoes, half the lime juice (use all for 4 ppl) and 1/4 tsp sugar (dbl for 4 ppl) to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then toss to combine.
Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in lime zest, if using. Divide rice between bowls. Top with chicken, salsa, sour cream and cheese. Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
