Step 1/4
Marinate Chicken and Cook Rice
In a bowl, combine thinly sliced chicken breast with lemon juice, low-fat plain yogurt, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. While the chicken is marinating, cook long-grain white rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff it with a fork and set aside.

Cook Chicken
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken slices to the skillet and cook until they are cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-6 minutes.
