Lemon Herb Chicken Breast with Steamed Broccoli and Brown Rice
Enjoy a delicate balance of flavors in this light dinner featuring a tender sliver of lemon herb chicken breast, paired with softly steamed broccoli and a hint of brown rice, all dressed in a zesty olive oil and lemon sauce. The dish delivers a burst of citrus and aromatic herbs while keeping the protein minimal and the calories in check.
INGREDIENTS
1 ounce Chicken Breast
1/4 cup chopped Broccoli
1 tablespoon cooked Brown Rice
2.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Thinly slice the chicken breast into a modest 1-ounce portion to keep protein low. Pat dry with a paper towel.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried herbs, salt, and pepper to form the marinade.
Lightly coat the chicken slices in the marinade, allowing them to soak in the flavors for about 10 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, steam the broccoli until just tender, about 3-4 minutes, preserving its vibrant color and nutrients.
Warm the cooked brown rice if not already prepared, ensuring a small, controlled portion (about 1 tablespoon) is ready.
Gently pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes per side; the focus is on enhancing flavor while maintaining minimal protein content.
Plate the chicken alongside the steamed broccoli and brown rice, then drizzle any remaining marinade over the top for an extra burst of lemon herb flavor.
