Fresh Herb-Citrus Rice Pilaf with Toasted Pine Nuts
Enjoy a vibrant and satisfying pilaf that combines the earthy warmth of brown rice with the zesty brightness of lemon and fresh herbs. Tender grilled chicken crowns the dish, while toasted pine nuts add a delightful crunch, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and textures.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Brown Rice
3 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast
1 ounce toasted Pine Nuts
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons chopped Fresh Parsley
2 tablespoons chopped Fresh Mint
1 teaspoon Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Prepare the brown rice according to package instructions until tender and fluffy.
While the rice cooks, season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then grill until fully cooked and juices run clear. Slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts for 3-4 minutes until they are golden and fragrant, shaking the pan frequently to avoid burning.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice with fresh lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped mint, and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Mix gently to distribute the flavors.
Plate the herbed rice pilaf, top with sliced grilled chicken, and sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the top. Serve warm and enjoy.
