Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken and Rice
Sautéed chicken breast simmered in a velvety lemon-yogurt sauce and served over fluffy brown rice with vibrant spinach.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked brown rice
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.25 cup low-sodium chicken broth
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 medium garlic clove
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside; reduce heat to medium and add the minced garlic clove, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits, then add the fresh spinach and stir until just wilted.
Turn the heat to low and whisk in the plain Greek yogurt and lemon zest until a smooth, creamy sauce forms, being careful not to let it boil.
Return the chicken to the skillet to coat in the sauce and serve immediately over the warm cooked brown rice, garnished with fresh parsley.
