Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- Juice of 2 limes
- Zest of 1 lime
- 2 cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions
- Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
- Step 2: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
- Step 3: While the chicken marinates, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the rice, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- Step 4: Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off before placing it onto the grill.
- Step 5: Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Step 6: In a bowl, combine diced avocado, red onion, fresh cilantro, and olive oil. Lightly mix so everything is evenly distributed.
- Step 7: To assemble the stack, layer a serving of rice at the base. Top with sliced chicken and then the avocado mixture.
- Step 8: Serve with lime wedges and additional cilantro for garnish, if desired.
