INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the brown rice according to package instructions until tender and fluffy. Fluff with a fork once done.
While the rice cooks, pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, fresh thyme, and rosemary.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
During the final minute of cooking, drizzle the pan with lemon juice to deglaze and infuse the chicken with zesty flavor.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the sliced chicken breast over a bed of brown rice pilaf, spooning any remaining pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
