INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Mince the garlic cloves and zest half a lemon; then squeeze in the lemon juice.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and add half of the minced garlic and lemon zest. Sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on one side, until golden brown.
Flip the chicken and add the remaining garlic, lemon juice, and a few more cracks of pepper. Continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the broccoli in a splash of water or the remaining olive oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until it is tender-crisp.
Plate the chicken and add the sautéed broccoli on the side, drizzling any pan juices over the chicken for extra flavor.
