Preparation Steps
- In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, cumin, paprika, and garlic powder to create a marinade. Coat the chicken breasts and marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours refrigerated.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil, add long-grain rice and turmeric, stir for 2 minutes. Pour in chicken stock, bring to boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- During the last 5 minutes of rice cooking, fold in frozen peas into the rice.
- Preheat grill or oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest before slicing.
- Prepare the green sauce by blending cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, and olive oil until smooth.
- Fluff the rice, plate it, top with sliced chicken, and drizzle with green sauce. Garnish with cilantro or lime wedges.
