Lemon Herb Rice and Lentil Pilaf
Tender chicken and earthy lentils simmered with brown rice in a bright lemon-herb broth for a vibrant and aromatic one-pot meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
3 tbsp dry green lentils
2 tbsp dry brown rice
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 clove garlic
1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then sauté the diced yellow onion and minced garlic until translucent.
Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the pan and sear for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned on all sides.
Stir in the dry green lentils and dry brown rice, then pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the grains are tender.
Remove from heat, stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley, and let it sit covered for 5 minutes before serving.
