Roasted Zucchini and Herb Rice Pilaf with Lemon Chicken
Pan-seared chicken breast served over a fragrant herb-infused rice pilaf with tender roasted zucchini for a bright and citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked jasmine rice
1 cup Zucchini
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Yellow onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the zucchini into half-moons and toss with half of the olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the zucchini on the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until tender and slightly golden.
Season the chicken breast with dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan to rest, then add the diced onion and minced garlic to the same skillet, sautéing until fragrant.
Add the cooked rice, fresh parsley, and lemon juice to the skillet, stirring for 2 minutes to incorporate the flavors.
Slice the chicken and serve it over the herb rice pilaf with the roasted zucchini on the side.
