PREPARATION

1
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
2
Heat half of the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, then set aside to rest.
3
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and sauté the finely diced yellow onion and minced garlic until translucent and aromatic.
4
Add the dry basmati rice to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute to lightly toast the grains.
5
Pour in the water, bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed.
6
Remove the rice from heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped parsley, fluffing with a fork.
7
Slice the rested chicken breast and serve it immediately over the warm lemon herb rice pilaf.
