Golden Pan-Seared Chicken with Herbed Rice
Golden pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with turmeric and garlic served over fragrant herbed basmati rice and tender sautéed spinach.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup basmati rice
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with ground turmeric, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 3 minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the baby spinach and sauté for 1 minute using the residual heat until just wilted.
In a small bowl, toss the warm cooked basmati rice with chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice.
Plate the sliced chicken over the herbed rice and serve with the sautéed spinach on the side.
