Caribbean Chicken with Pineapple Cilantro

medium prep time 20 mins | cook time 30 mins | SERVINGS 4

1 tablespoon La Fe Brown Sugar

1 teaspoon La Fe Ground Black Pepper

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon La Fe Ground Cumin

1 teaspoon garlic salt

1 teaspoon paprika

La Fe Sazon

½ teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

1 cup uncooked La Fe White Rice

1 ½ cups water

1 (8 ounce) can sliced Mango in juice, drained – divided/La Fe Mango Pulp

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon La Fe Vegetable Oil

1 pinch garlic salt

1 pinch La Fe Ground Black Pepper

STEP ONE

Preheat the oven to 350˚ F (175˚ C).
STEP TWO

Mix together the La Fe brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of La Fe black pepper, thyme, La Fe cumin, 1 teaspoon of garlic salt, paprika, chili powder, La Fe sazon, and nutmeg in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Rub both sides of chicken breasts with the spice mixture, and place into a 9×9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle any remaining seasoning mix on top of chicken, if desired.
STEP THREE

Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is lightly browned, no longer pink inside, and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast should read at least 160˚ F (70˚ C).
STEP FOUR

Whole chicken is baking, bring the La Fe rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
STEP FIVE

Mix La Fe pineapple pulp, cilantro, and La Fe vegetable oil into the cooked rice, and season to taste with a pinch or two of garlic salt and black pepper. Fluff the rice up with a fork, and transfer to a serving platter. Serve with the baked chicken, topped with remaining pineapple slices.
