In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and a pinch of the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes. Done when tender and water is absorbed.
While the rice cooks, toss the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl with the minced chipotle peppers and their sauce until the meat is thoroughly coated.
Heat the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and bell pepper strips. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are charred at the edges and the chicken is cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes. Done when chicken is opaque throughout, 165°F.
Stir the lime juice and the remaining salt into the skillet. Fluff the rice with a fork and scoop it into a bowl. Top with the spicy chicken and peppers, then garnish with cilantro.
