Ingredients
Scale
2 large pieces of chicken breast (about 1 lb)
1 cup of brown rice
1 cup of fresh corn kernels
1 medium red onion, diced
1 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup of cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup of lime juice
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese
2 tbsp of olive oil
Instructions
Start by rinsing the brown rice under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 30 minutes until water is absorbed.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with spices (cumin and chili powder) and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest and slice.
Add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed in the same skillet. Sauté diced red onion for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add corn kernels and cook for another 5 minutes until they caramelize slightly.
In a large bowl, combine cooked rice, sautéed onion, corn, cherry tomatoes, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Toss gently to combine.
To serve, place a portion of rice and vegetable mixture in a bowl. Top with sliced chicken, crumbled feta cheese, and an extra squeeze of lime juice if desired.
Notes
A vibrant dish that combines tender chicken, sweet corn, and zesty toppings, making it a perfect family meal that challenges the notion that gourmet flavors require hours of preparation.
