Zesty Lemon Herb Rice Pilaf
Tender sautéed chicken and basmati rice simmered in a zesty lemon broth, infused with the bright, aromatic scent of fresh dill and parsley.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.33 cup basmati rice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.66 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 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
PREPARATION
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the diced chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper, then add to the skillet and sear until golden brown on all sides.
Add the diced yellow onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent, then stir in the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the dry basmati rice and toast the grains for 1-2 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors in the pan.
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and cover with a tight-fitting lid.
Simmer for 15 minutes or until the liquid is fully absorbed and the rice is tender.
Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork and stirring in the lemon zest, fresh parsley, and fresh dill.
