Ingredients
- 1 Tbs olive oil
- 1 lb chicken breasts without skin, uncooked, (about 4 pieces)
- 1 Tbs olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cups short-grain white rice, uncooked
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp cumin

- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Add the second Tbsp (15mL) of oil to the skillet and heat. Add garlic and onion and cook for 5 minutes, until onions are limp.
