Swaps and substitutions
For a lighter option, swap the chicken thighs for chicken breast. If you avoid onions or want a milder bowl, use extra zucchini or tomatoes instead of the red onion; for lower-carb, replace some rice with cauliflower rice.
What to serve with it
Serve with warm flatbread or tortilla chips for scooping up the saucy rice, and add a crisp green salad or cucumber slaw to lighten the plate. Lime wedges and extra herbs also brighten the bowl.
