INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked Long-Grain White Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
1 small Yellow Onion
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of half a lemon, a crushed garlic clove, olive oil, chopped rosemary, and thyme along with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on a baking tray and brush it evenly with the lemon herb mixture.
Roast the chicken in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked and the juices run clear.
While the chicken is roasting, heat a pan over medium heat with a little olive oil and sauté finely chopped onion until translucent.
Add in pre-cooked long-grain white rice to the pan, stirring to mix with the onions and season with salt and pepper. Cover and let it steam for a few minutes until warmed through.
Slice the roasted chicken and serve it alongside a generous portion of the fluffy rice pilaf, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
