Dice the avocado and toss it with lime juice to coat, then sprinkle with a little salt. Cook the brown rice according to its package instructions.
To build the bowls, start with a base of the cooked brown rice. On top of that, sprinkle some corn, drained canned black beans, and diced tomato. Once the chicken has rested for a few minutes, slice it on an angle.
