MARINATION STATION
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel. In a bowl, combine the tequila marinade, the spicy rub, and a drizzle of oil. Mix to emulsify, add the chicken pieces, and season. Set aside in the fridge to marinate, 10-15 minutes.
Corn & PATTY PANS
Place a pot (large enough for the rice) over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn and the patty pans until golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pot and season.
TASTY TEQUILA Chicken
Drain the marinade from the Chicken pieces and set aside. Spread the chicken pieces on a roasting tray. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). In the final 5-8 minutes, pour the reserved marinade over the chicken and roast for the remaining time.
FRAGRANT RICE
Return the pot to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the Onion until soft and lightly golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the rice with 200ml [400ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and add the corn and patty pans.
DINNER IS READY
Dish up the loaded rice, top with the flavourful Chicken and all the tray juices. Look at you, Chef!
