Zesty Lemon Herb Rice Pilaf with Almonds
Sautéed chicken breast and aromatic rice simmered with fresh lemon and herbs, topped with crunchy toasted almonds for a bright and satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked jasmine rice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp sliced almonds
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tbsp fresh dill
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup low-sodium chicken broth
PREPARATION
Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the finely diced yellow onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent.
Stir in the cooked jasmine rice, chicken broth, lemon juice, and lemon zest, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Return the chicken to the pan and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the liquid is mostly absorbed and the rice is heated through.
Fold in the chopped fresh parsley and dill, then garnish with the sliced almonds and the remaining salt and pepper before serving.
