AWESOME CHICKEN AND YELLOW RICE
This is one of my staples and it is often requested. There is a lot of garlic in this, but it does not overpower. Served with good bread and a salad, it can't be beat. I use the packaged Vigo yellow rice mix for ease. Also, because this cooks for awhile, use either chicken thighs, legs or quarters to keep from drying out. Find the whole garlic cloves and spread them on your bread. I use a paella pan with a lid or you can use a casserole dish that you cover with foil.

CILANTRO LIME GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST WITH SOUTHWEST YELLOW RICE SALAD
This is a lovely, light & flavorful dinner! The chicken has the yummy cilantro and lime flavors from the marinade. They're subtle, definitely not overpowering. The corn salad does have some heat, but it pairs very well with the chicken. If you're able to get your hands on fresh corn, it's definitely worth using.

Steps:
- 1. Begin marinade for chicken by adding chopped cilantro to zest and juice of 2 limes mix well. In a casserole dish place 4 chicken breasts and sprinkle 1 tablespoon Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle spices evenly on all 4, followed by cilantro lime marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2. Yellow rice salad begins with preparing yellow rice as directed on package. When rice is done remove to a large bowl fluff. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until you are ready to mix salad.
- 3. Start fire in grill (I use charcoal but you could use gas just make sure you have nice high heat to start) you could also do this inside on a grill pan if you have no outside grill! I like to get my fire really hot all coals burning then take a paper towel with olive oil and rub grill to make sure chicken does not stick. When coals are ready medium to high heat place corn on fire grill about 6-8 minutes then remove from grill to cool. Remove chicken from marinade and place on grill. Grill 4 minutes on each side then turn and grill again to get grill marks criss crossed. Total 8 minutes on each side. Watch fire if it flames spray with water to get rid of flames. When grilling is done remove to side of grill with low heat. Then leave there to finish cooking about 10-15 minutes.
- 4. While chicken is on low heat begin salad. Cut corn from cob and place in large bowl of yellow rice. Add black beans, garlic, fresh tomatoes, and red onion toss well set aside while making dressing.
- 5. In food processor add adobe sauce, 1 sliced avocado, juice of 1 lime, sea salt, pulse 3-4 times until smooth and creamy then slowly add extra virgin olive oil while processor is running until incorporated. Remove from processor bowl and add to salad. Toss well and return to refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
- 6. Plating start with 2-3 serving spoons of yellow rice salad topped with chicken breast that have been sliced on the diagonal top with 4 slices of fresh avocado sprinkle with ground black pepper and a squeeze of fresh lime.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with water. Add garlic powder, salt, pepper and chicken. Boil for approximately 25 minutes or until done.
- Remove chicken from the pot (save the broth it was cooked in) and remove the meat from the bone. Discard skin and bones.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Using fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your dish. Look for plump, juicy chicken breasts or thighs, and use a flavorful rice like basmati or jasmine.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of spices and herbs will help to infuse it with flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs, or try a more complex marinade with ingredients like yogurt, lemon juice, and cumin.
- Cook the rice properly: To achieve fluffy, flavorful rice, it's important to cook it properly. Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove the starch, and then cook it in a pot with a tight-fitting lid. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for the recommended amount of time.
- Add vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition: You can easily add vegetables to this dish to make it more colorful and nutritious. Try adding chopped carrots, peas, or bell peppers to the rice, or stir in some sautéed spinach or kale.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: This dish is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with your favorite toppings to add extra flavor and texture. Try topping it with sliced almonds, chopped fresh herbs, or a dollop of yogurt.
