Grilled Chicken Breast With White Rice And Asparagus Recipe

Cook the Chicken

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) if baking, or preheat your grill to medium-high if grilling. 2. Season the chicken breast with a mixture of herbs and spices such as black pepper, garlic powder, and any other preferred seasonings. 3. If baking, place the chicken breast in a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). If grilling, cook the chicken on the grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.

Prepare the White Rice

1. Rinse 1 cup of white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. 2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. 3. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. 4. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing the rice with a fork.

Roast the Asparagus

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). 2. Trim the ends of the asparagus spears and toss them with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. 3. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet. 4. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.
