INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast (roasted)
3/4 cup cooked Brown Rice
6 spears roasted Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Marinate the chicken breast by lightly coating it with lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked and golden.
While the chicken is roasting, prepare the brown rice pilaf by warming the cooked brown rice in a pan over medium heat. Stir in a small amount of water or low-sodium broth to keep it moist and fold in a bit of fresh herbs.
Toss the asparagus spears with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on another baking tray and roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
Plate the dish by placing a serving of brown rice pilaf, topping it with slices of lemon-herb chicken, and arranging the roasted asparagus on the side.
Drizzle a little extra lemon juice over the assembly for a bright finishing touch and serve warm.
