INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked White Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, mix the juice of half a lemon with minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create a zesty marinade.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet and generously brush with the marinade, ensuring an even coating.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for a few minutes once out of the oven.
While the chicken roasts, prepare the fluffy rice pilaf by warming the pre-cooked white rice in a saucepan, optionally adding a pinch of salt and a dash of olive oil.
Plate the rice, slice the roasted chicken, and drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top for added flavor. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and a lemon wedge.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavor-packed meal.
