1Step 1Rinse the rice under cold water until the water is almost clear. Put it in a pot, add 420 ml of water, bring to a boil, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, reduce to the lowest setting and cook covered for 12 minutes. Then let it rest off the heat for 5 minutes.
2Step 2Cut the chicken into larger pieces. In a bowl mix 2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, 2 crushed garlic cloves, paprika, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, chili, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
3Step 3Coat the meat in the marinade and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the cucumber into half-moons, halve the tomatoes, slice the onion thinly and cut the lettuce into strips.
4Step 4In a small bowl mix the yogurt, 1 crushed garlic clove, 1/2 teaspoon salt and parsley. If the yogurt is too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of cold water.
5Step 5Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. Fry the chicken in a single layer for 6 to 8 minutes, turning once or twice while cooking. The meat should be cooked through and slightly browned at the edges.
6Step 6Fluff the rice with a fork. Divide the rice, chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, onion and lettuce between bowls.
7Step 7Finally add the garlic yogurt. Serve immediately while the chicken is hot and the vegetables are crisp.

Kitchen tip

The biggest shortcut is to marinate the chicken and chop the vegetables a day ahead. You can also cook the rice in advance; when assembling the bowl, briefly warm it with a tablespoon of water.

Variants and alternatives

Use bulgur or couscous instead of rice for an even quicker prep. For a milder version omit the chili flakes and add a little grated cucumber to the yogurt. Chickpeas, pickled cucumbers, olives or thinly sliced radishes also work well in the bowl. Replace chicken thigh fillets with chicken breasts, just cook them for a shorter time so they don’t dry out.
