Ingredients: 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (12 oz total); 2/3 cup long-grain white rice, rinsed; 1 1/4 cups water; 1 tsp olive oil; 1/3 cup chopped cilantro; 1 tbsp lime juice plus zest of 1/2 lime; 1 tbsp avocado oil; 2 poblano peppers, seeded and cut into thin strips; 1/2 medium white onion, thinly sliced; 1 garlic clove, minced; 1/2 cup frozen corn kernels; 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth; 1/4 cup Mexican crema or heavy cream; 1/2 tsp ground cumin; 1 tsp kosher salt, divided; 1/4 tsp black pepper

Evenly pounded chicken breasts get a deep golden sear, then the pan fond becomes a silky sauce of charred poblano strips, sweet corn and a splash of cream. Spooned over fluffy cilantro-lime rice, it is comfort food with a confident home cook's polish.
