Crispy Lemon-Herb Pan-Seared Butterfly Chicken
Experience a delightfully crisp and tangy twist on pan-seared butterfly chicken accented with fresh lemon and aromatic herbs. This dish features tender chicken, perfectly seared in a light coating of olive oil, and is accompanied by a vibrant side of quinoa and baby spinach, making it a balanced meal that’s as nutritious as it is flavorful.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Butterfly Chicken Breast
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary & Thyme
1 clove Garlic
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Baby Spinach
PREPARATION
Pat the butterfly chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, finely chopped fresh herbs, and minced garlic.
Brush the chicken all over with the lemon-herb mixture.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the chicken in the pan, skin side down if applicable, and sear for about 4-5 minutes until the outside is crispy.
Flip the chicken and cook for another 4-5 minutes until fully cooked and juices run clear.
While the chicken finishes cooking, lightly toss baby spinach with a splash of lemon juice or extra herbs if desired, and reheat the cooked quinoa if necessary.
Plate the chicken alongside the quinoa and a fresh bed of spinach. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top for extra flavor.
