Zesty Lemon Herb Chicken with Golden Rice
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with bright lemon and oregano served over fragrant turmeric-stained rice and tender sautéed zucchini.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup cooked jasmine rice
0.25 tsp turmeric
0.5 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup zucchini
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides with dried oregano, lemon zest, sea salt, and black pepper.
In a small bowl, toss the warm cooked jasmine rice with the turmeric until it is evenly stained a vibrant golden color.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the outside is golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 3 minutes.
In the same skillet, add the sliced zucchini and minced garlic, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp.
Slice the chicken into strips and serve over the golden rice alongside the sautéed zucchini.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice before serving.
