INGREDIENTS
1 piece (4 oz) Chicken Breast (113g)
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice (100g)
1 cup Mixed Vegetables (150g)
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil (7g)
1/2 Lemon (juice & zest, ~30g)
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (parsley & thyme, ~6g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or pan on medium heat.
Pat the chicken breast dry, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
Drizzle the olive oil into the pan and add the chicken. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side until lightly browned.
While the chicken cooks, add the mixed vegetables to the pan, stirring occasionally to ensure they start to soften without overcooking.
Add the cooked brown rice to the pan, stirring gently to combine with the vegetables.
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the contents and sprinkle in the lemon zest for an extra burst of citrus flavor.
Tear and scatter the fresh herbs (parsley and thyme) over the dish. Continue to cook everything together for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Check that the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender yet crisp. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve warm and enjoy your one-pan meal that perfectly balances zesty brightness with hearty, nutritious comfort.
