Pan-Seared Golden Chicken with Zesty Rice and Avocado
Golden pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with aromatic turmeric and garlic, paired with zesty lime-infused jasmine rice and slices of buttery avocado.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup jasmine rice
0.25 whole avocado
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lime juice
0.5 tsp lime zest
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup baby spinach
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels to ensure a proper sear.
In a small bowl, combine the turmeric, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, then rub the mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
While the chicken cooks, fluff the pre-cooked jasmine rice in a bowl and stir in the lime juice and lime zest.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet during the last 2 minutes of chicken cooking, allowing it to wilt slightly in the pan juices.
Slice the chicken into strips and serve over the zesty rice alongside the wilted spinach.
Top the dish with fresh avocado slices and an extra squeeze of lime if desired.
