Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Chicken with Lemon Garlic Sauce
Enjoy tender pan-seared chicken breast with a fragrant herb crust, enhanced by a zesty lemon garlic sauce. This dish is elevated by fresh herbs and a light drizzle of olive oil, and is perfectly paired with a side of fluffy quinoa, making it an ideal balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
1 teaspoon Fresh Parsley
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a shallow dish, combine chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley.
Press the chicken breast into the herb mixture to ensure an even coating.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breast and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the lemon garlic sauce by lightly crushing the garlic clove and mixing it with lemon juice.
Once the chicken is nearly done, drizzle the lemon garlic sauce over the chicken in the pan and allow it to simmer for an additional minute to meld the flavors.
Serve the herb-crusted chicken with a side of 0.5 cup cooked quinoa. Optionally garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
