Instructions

Step 1
1

Wash and dry all produce. Peel and finely chop garlic. Place rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse until water runs clear. Melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Stir in rice, 1 cup water (2 cups for 4), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15 minutes. Keep covered off heat for at least 10 minutes or until ready to serve.

Step 2

While rice cooks, zest and quarter lemon (for 4 servings, zest 1 lemon and quarter both). Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Trim and quarter cucumber lengthwise; slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick pieces. Dice tomato. In a large bowl, stir together juice from half the lemon, a pinch of salt, and a large drizzle of olive oil. Add up to ¼ of the onion. (You’ll build your salad in this same bowl later. Use as much onion as you’d like to eat in said salad. You’re the chef!)

In a small bowl, combine sour cream and lemon zest. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add remaining onion and cook until lightly browned and slightly softened, 4-5 minutes. Add chicken, Turkish Spice, salt (we used ½ tsp kosher salt; 1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Remove from heat; squeeze in lemon juice to taste. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
