INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked long-grain white rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and coat evenly with the lemon herb mixture.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is roasting, prepare the rice pilaf. In a small saucepan, sauté the finely chopped onion in a teaspoon of olive oil until soft and translucent.
Add the cooked rice and chicken broth to the onions, stirring to combine. Let it simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Remove the chicken when done and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the sliced chicken atop a bed of fluffy rice pilaf and enjoy a balanced, satisfying meal.
