Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix minced garlic, lemon juice, yogurt, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Rice

    Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork when done.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Salad

    Chop the mixed salad greens, tomatoes, and cucumber. Toss them together in a bowl.

  5. 5

    Serve

    On a plate, serve the grilled chicken alongside the rice, the salad, a portion of garlic cream or hummus, and fresh pita bread.
