INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked White Rice
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, juice from half a lemon, chopped fresh thyme, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on the baking sheet and brush both sides generously with the lemon herb mixture.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Meanwhile, prepare the rice pilaf by warming the cooked white rice in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. Optionally, season lightly with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of lemon juice.
Once the chicken is done, slice it and serve atop the warm fluffy rice pilaf, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
