Ingredients

Method

1.Combine juice, oil, paprika, oregano, salt, chilli, garlic and chicken in a large bowl.
2.Preheat an oiled grill plate (or grill or barbecue) to medium.
3.Cook chicken on grill plate, covered loosely with foil, 6 minutes each side or until browned and cooked through.
4.Meanwhile, make rice. Heat oil in a large frying pan; cook onion, garlic, capsicum and corn, stirring, until vegetables have softened. Add rice; cook, stirring, 5 minutes, to separate rice grains and heat through. Stir in olives and coriander; season to taste.
5.Serve chicken with rice and chutney.

For a more intense flavour, marinate the chicken overnight. You can substitute 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice, cooked in boiling water 15 minutes, then drained.
