Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add chicken breasts and coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat Grill
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Cooking the Rice
Cook Brown Rice
In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of brown rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Place marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Cooking the Vegetables

While the chicken is grilling, chop the bell pepper, zucchini, and carrot into bite-sized pieces.

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until tender.
