Mix the marinade ingredients together and add the chicken. Let it sit for at least an hour to overnight.

Toast the rice in olive oil until slightly golden brown, then add water, salt, cumin, and lime peel. Bring to a boil, then cover and let it steam for 15 minutes.

For the salsa, chop the tomato, onion, and garlic, then mix with cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and lime juice.

For the guacamole, mix the chopped onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, and salt together.

In a small pan, sauté onions and green bell peppers in olive oil, then add garlic and pinto beans with liquid, along with chili powder and cumin until warmed through.

Grill the corn on the hot grill, brushing with melted butter and chili powder. Grill the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through, then cut into small chunks.

Assemble the burrito bowl by layering cilantro lime rice, grilled chicken, grilled corn, pinto beans, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and shredded cheese.
