INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Orzo Pasta
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Flatten the chicken breast gently for even cooking and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, bring a small pot of water to a boil and cook the orzo pasta as per package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In a separate pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the cooked orzo to the garlic pan, drizzle with lemon juice, and toss in the chopped fresh herbs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the garlic orzo and top with the lemon-herb pan seared chicken. Garnish with additional herbs if desired and serve immediately.
