CUMIN LIME CHICKEN WITH RICE

1 cup uncooked rice
4 boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves (about 6 ounces each)
3 tablespoons whole cumin seed or 1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 limes
2 tablespoons olive oil

Cook rice according to package directions. Meanwhile, rinse and pat dry chicken. Crush cumin seeds on a cutting board by smashing under a heavy mug or chopping with a large knife. Grate zest and squeeze juice from limes. Add half the zest to the crushed cumin seeds or ground cumin. Rub both sides of chicken with the zest-cumin mixture. Heat oil in a large skillet. Cook chicken until done, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Spritz with lime juice. Mix remaining zest into the cooked rice and serve with the chicken.
