Puree the chipotle peppers, garlic, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt in a food processor until smooth.
Place the chicken in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
While the chicken is marinating, cook the brown rice according to package instructions.
Rinse and drain the black beans, and warm them gently in a saucepan over low heat.
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (75Β°C). Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
Divide the cooked rice into serving bowls. Top with slices of chipotle chicken, a portion of black beans, corn, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced avocado.
Finely chop the cilantro and slice the red onion as a garnish. Add these on top of each bowl along with a wedge from the fresh lime.
Serve immediately while warm, squeezing extra lime juice over the top as desired.
