Grilled Chicken

Jasmine Rice

Method

Grilled Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for another 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  4. 4

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Jasmine Rice

  1. 5

    Rinse the Rice

    In a fine mesh sieve, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from being gummy.

  2. 6

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

  3. 7

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork.
