Rice 'n Chicken

So this is A medley of brown rice made with home made garlic powder, a handful of cilantro, a pinch of sea salt and a couple of shakes of paprika and Turmeric. The Chicken was made with homemade garlic spread, E.V.O.O. and plain vinegar. Once the chicken was cooked(on the outside) I added it to the rice as it was cooking so it can A) absorb some of the flavor from the chicken and B) tenderize the chicken a bit more.
The taste was worth the wait and I can't wait to eat the rest for dinner( I just had some for lunch.. and my student were romanticized with food with just a scent of it.
