    To accompany our simply spiced chicken, we’re finishing rice with bites of corn and browned butter, which has been heated until it develops a nutty flavor and deep golden color.

    Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Remove any husks and silks from the corn; cut the kernels off the cobs. Peel and finely chop the shallot. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Combine the corn kernelschopped shallot, and chopped garlic in a bowl. Pick the rosemary leaves off the stems; finely chop the leaves. Halve the tomatoes. Roughly chop the parsley leaves and stems. In a separate, medium bowl, combine the halved tomatoes and half the chopped parsley. Add half the vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

    Meanwhile, in a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the corn mixture; season with salt and pepper.

    4 Cook the chicken

    Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt, pepper, and enough of the spice blend to coat (you may have extra). In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Working in batches if necessary, add the seasoned chicken. Cook 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.* Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a cutting board.

    In the pan of reserved fond, heat the butter on medium-high until melted. Add the chopped rosemary. Cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the foam subsides and the butter is fragrant (it should smell nutty and toasted). Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining vinegar (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Add the brown butter and cooked corn to the pot of cooked rice; season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Slice the cooked chicken crosswise. Serve the sliced chicken over the finished rice. Top with the marinated tomatoes (including any liquid). Garnish with the remaining chopped parsley. Enjoy!
