Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Fluffy Rice Pilaf
Savor tender, lemon-infused roasted chicken paired with a delicate rice pilaf accented with a medley of herbs and veggies. This dish brings bright, zesty notes and comforting textures together in a beautifully balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for marinade)
1/2 lemon (juiced)
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
1/2 cup Cooked White Rice
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for pilaf)
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup Diced Onion
1/4 cup Frozen Peas
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried rosemary.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking tray and brush both sides generously 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.
While the chicken roasts, prepare the rice pilaf. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil for pilaf.
Sauté the diced onion until translucent, then add the frozen peas and stir for another 2 minutes.
Add the low-sodium chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
Stir in the cooked white rice and allow it to heat through, absorbing the flavors for about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the roasted chicken and serve it alongside a hearty scoop of rice pilaf. Enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal!
