PREPARATION

• 1

  Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  In the same skillet, melt the ghee and sauté the finely diced yellow onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent.

• 4

  Add the dry basmati rice to the skillet, stirring for 1-2 minutes to lightly toast the grains and coat them in the aromatics.

  Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.

• 6

  Remove from heat and stir in the cooked chicken, lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped fresh parsley.

  Cover the pan for 2 more minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then fluff with a fork and serve immediately.
