INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Basmati Rice
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs
1/4 cup diced Red Onion
1/4 cup Chicken Broth (low sodium)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and rub the lemon herb mixture evenly over it. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
Roast the chicken in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken roasts, prepare the rice pilaf: In a small saucepan, heat a tiny drizzle of olive oil and lightly sauté the diced red onion until translucent.
Add the cooked basmati rice and chicken broth to the pan with the onions, stirring to combine. Allow it to simmer gently for 3-4 minutes to meld the flavors, then stir in additional fresh herbs.
Once the chicken is roasted, slice it and serve alongside a generous serving of the warm, fluffy rice pilaf.
