Ingredients for Chori Chicken

Method

Directions for Chori Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo. Cook until browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice

    In the same skillet, add white rice and toast for 2-3 minutes. Add chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the rice is cooked, stir in the cooked chorizo and chopped jalapeños. Mix well.

  6. 6

    Prepare Cheese Dip

    Melt the cheddar cheese in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.

  7. 7

    Serve

    On a plate, serve the grilled chicken over the chorizo rice mixture, and drizzle with cheese dip. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
