INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
Lemon Zest and Juice (from 1 lemon)
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and mixed dried herbs. Drizzle with a bit of lemon juice.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a teaspoon of olive oil. Sear the chicken for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish. Drizzle the remaining lemon juice and sprinkle some lemon zest over the chicken. Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, toss the broccoli in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Prepare brown rice according to package instructions if not already cooked. A half cup of cooked rice should suffice.
Plate the dish by placing the brown rice as the base, top with the crispy lemon herb chicken breast, and serve with a side of roasted broccoli. Enjoy!
