Savor a delightful dinner featuring tender, lemon herb roasted chicken paired with a light and fluffy rice pilaf. This dish combines zesty citrus, fragrant herbs, and perfectly cooked brown rice for a balanced, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1/2 medium Lemon
2 tsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
3 sprigs Fresh Thyme
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the juice from 1/2 a lemon, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped thyme, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and coat evenly with the lemon herb mixture.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Meanwhile, prepare the rice pilaf by warming the cooked brown rice in a saucepan over low heat. Fluff it with a fork and season lightly with salt and a squeeze of extra lemon if desired.
Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve the sliced chicken over a bed of fluffy rice pilaf, drizzling any remaining pan juices on top.
