Chicken and Rice w/ Cilantro Base

I came across some Goya Recaito which is a cilantro based seasoning good for rice. I had to use it because I like rice and cilantro, so I came up with a simple recipe.

What you'll need:
- 1 cup Basmati Rice
- 2 cups Chicken Broth
- package green onions (chopped)
- 1 can whole corn
- 1 lb chicken breast (cubed)
- 4 heaping tbsp Goya Recaito
- olive oil
- pepper
- chili powder
- garlic clove

Heat oil over medium/high heat. Add chopped onion and cook for several minutes. Add diced/pressed garlic clove and cook for another 30-60 seconds.

Add chicken and cook until no longer pink on the outside.

Add the basmati rice. Continually stir to coat with the oil/juices in the pot. Then add the chicken broth and the corn.

Lastly add the Goya and touch of pepper and chili powder (about 1 tsp of each). Cook until broth is evaporated. Then enjoy!
