INGREDIENTS
150 grams Chicken Breast (skinless, boneless)
100 grams cooked White Rice
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the juice and zest of the lemon, minced garlic, olive oil, mixed dried herbs, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and coat it evenly with the lemon herb mixture.
Let the chicken marinate for 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the rice pilaf: if not already cooked, cook the white rice according to package instructions, ensuring it remains fluffy.
Place the baking dish with the chicken in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest slightly, then slice it.
To serve, layer a bed of fluffy rice pilaf on your plate and top with the sliced roasted lemon herb chicken.
Garnish with additional lemon zest or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice if desired.
