INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Saffron Infused White Rice
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
2 tbsp Fresh Herb Mix
1 pinch Saffron Threads
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pat the chicken breast dry.
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, olive oil, crushed garlic, and chopped fresh herbs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Rub the herb-citrus mixture all over the chicken breast and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and slightly golden on the edges.
Meanwhile, prepare the saffron rice. In a small pot, bring water to a boil, add a pinch of saffron threads, and stir in the cooked white rice. Let it heat gently for 3-4 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Fluff the saffron rice with a fork and plate alongside the roasted chicken.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve warm.
