Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of Fajita seasoning. Toss until the chicken is fully coated.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the seasoned chicken strips. Cook for about 7-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until they are softened and slightly charred.
Warm the cooked brown rice and black beans. You can use a microwave or a small saucepan over low heat.
To assemble the bowls, start with a base of brown rice, then layer on the black beans, sautéed peppers and onions, and cooked chicken strips.
Slice the avocado and lime. Top each bowl with fresh avocado slices and a squeeze of lime. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
