INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast

Add the fresh mixed herbs, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the rice mixture, stirring to evenly distribute the flavors.
Fold in the chopped grilled chicken, ensuring it is well mixed with the rice and chickpeas.
Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the pilaf and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy this fresh, vibrant, and nutritious dish.
