Based on NataschAnn’s helpful comments I have made some improvements to this recipe. Firstly, I have changed step 6 to read “cilantro” instead of “coriander”. They are one in the same, in Australia we call it coriander, and that’s what I had written in the ingredients section. However, the Zaar’s automatic ingredient formatter changed my coriander to cilantro and confusion has ensued! That’ll learn me — Second, I have rewritten step 7 so it is clearer to understand. The original intent of this recipe is to keep the rice separate from the chicken mixture, but really it’s up to you – feel free to combine them before spooning into the lettuce, like in Stormylee’s pic (which is beautiful by the way, thank you Stormylee!). I hope this clears up any issues. Thanks again for the constructive criticism.
