INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme)
1 clove Garlic, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes, if time permits.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is baking, prepare the brown rice as per package instructions if not pre-cooked.
Serve the baked chicken over a bed of brown rice, drizzling any remaining pan juices on top for extra flavor.
