INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked White Rice
1 cup sautéed Spinach
1/2 cup crisp Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1/2 tsp Chili Powder
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by preheating a skillet over medium heat. Lightly season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, chili powder, lemon zest, and a drizzle of lemon juice.
Sear the chicken in the skillet until it's golden on both sides and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from heat and let rest.
In the same skillet, add the olive oil. Sauté the spinach until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes, then season with a pinch of salt.
Blanch or lightly steam the green beans until they are crisp-tender, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Reheat the pre-cooked white rice if necessary. Plate the rice, then slice the chicken breast and arrange on top. Serve with the sautéed spinach and crisp green beans on the side, drizzling extra lemon juice if desired.
