While the rice is cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. 4. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. 5. Serve the sliced chicken over the fluffy rice and garnish with fresh parsley.
