– **Flavor Development** – The spices and ingredients have more time to infuse into the rice and chicken, creating a more cohesive and flavorful dish.

## **Fun Variations You Can Try**
– **Add Avocado** – Top with fresh avocado slices for added creaminess.
– **Make it Spicy** – Add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to give it a spicy kick.
