Instructions
1
If you don’t have any cooked rice in your fridge, start by making the rice. To do this, put a tablespoon of olive oil into a pan and heat. Then slice up a garlic clove and add. When the garlic starts to color, add the rice. Stir for a couple of minutes and then add 2 cups hot water and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook over high heat for 7 minutes, then reduce and simmer for 8 more minutes. If the rice has absorbed all the water in this time but is still hard, add a little more water. Let stand for a few minutes.
2
Cut the pineapple, onion, and avocado into pieces.
3
Put the chicken breast on a cutting board and slice into smallish cubes. Lightly fry in a skillet with hot olive oil.
4
In a bowl, combine the rice, pineapple, onion, and chicken. Sprinkle a little minced cilantro over everything and mix well.

Finally add the chopped avocado and serve.
