Main Ingredients

Marinade for Chicken

For Mexican Rice

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparation of Broccoli

  1. 3

    Steam the Broccoli

    In a steamer basket over boiling water, add the broccoli florets. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes until they are bright green and tender but still crisp.

Preparation of Mexican Rice

  1. 4

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add the white rice and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

  2. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour in the chicken broth and tomato sauce. Stir in the chili powder, corn (if using), salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.

  3. 6

    Simmer the Rice

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.
