# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Combine parsley, cilantro, garlic, oregano, olive oil, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Reserve one-third cup as sauce for serving.
02 - Place chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour remaining chimichurri over chicken, ensuring complete coating. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.
03 - Preheat grill, grill pan, or skillet to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and season both sides with additional salt and pepper.
04 - Grill or pan-cook chicken 6 to 7 minutes per side until cooked through and juices run clear. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice into desired thickness.
05 - Distribute rice evenly among 4 bowls. Arrange sliced chicken on top, followed by cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and red onion.
06 - Drizzle reserved chimichurri sauce over assembled bowls. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with lime wedges.
