Golden Pan-Seared Chicken with Zesty Herbs
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served alongside fluffy quinoa and vibrant steamed broccoli for a crisp and clean finish.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken breast
2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Broccoli florets
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is searing, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
In a small bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and finely chopped parsley to create the zesty herb topping.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 2 minutes before drizzling with the lemon-herb mixture.
Plate the chicken alongside the warm cooked quinoa and steamed broccoli for a balanced, nutrient-dense meal.
