- 1
Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- 2
Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
- 3
Blend mango, olive oil, lime juice, honey, Sriracha sauce, garlic, and salt until smooth. Place the chicken in a shallow bowl and pour 1/2 of the sauce over it; marinate the chicken for 10 minutes.
- 4
Combine black beans, corn, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a bowl to make the corn salsa.
- 5
Grill the chicken until it is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the heat.

Divide the rice among 4 glass meal prep bowls. Add 2 pieces of chicken to each bowl; top with the reserved mango sauce, corn salsa, and coconut. Add avocado slices on top, cover, and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
