One-Pan Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken and Rice
Sautéed chicken and jasmine rice simmered in a bright lemon-herb broth, creating a vibrant and fluffy one-pan meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.33 cup jasmine rice
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.66 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Heat the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for about 3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms, then remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the dry jasmine rice to the same skillet and stir for 1 minute to lightly toast the grains in the remaining oil and chicken drippings.
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any flavorful browned bits.
Bring the liquid to a gentle boil, then place the chicken breast back on top of the rice.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
Remove from heat, quickly stir in the fresh baby spinach until it wilts from the residual heat, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
