Creamy Lemon Herb Chicken with Golden Rice
Pan-seared chicken breast simmered in a velvety lemon-herb coconut sauce, served over vibrant turmeric-infused rice for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked basmati rice
0.25 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp full-fat coconut milk
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 clove garlic
1 tsp fresh parsley
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, toss the cooked basmati rice with turmeric powder and a tablespoon of water, heating over low until the rice is evenly golden and warm.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5 to 6 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate to rest.
Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic to the skillet, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the coconut milk, lemon juice, and chopped parsley, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the baby spinach to the sauce and stir for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Slice the rested chicken into strips and return it to the pan, tossing to coat in the creamy lemon sauce.
Serve the chicken and sauce immediately over the warm golden rice.
