INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1/2 cup cooked Black Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 medium Lime
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Ground Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the juice and zest of the lime, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, pepper, and chopped fresh cilantro to create a vibrant marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and juices run clear.
While the chicken cooks, warm the cooked brown rice and black beans in a small pot over low heat. Stir occasionally and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the dish by placing a serving of fluffy brown rice and spiced black beans on the side, then add the sliced chicken breast on top or beside the grains.
Garnish with extra fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
