Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Rice
Tender chicken breast roasted with a vibrant lemon-herb rub, served alongside fluffy brown rice and crisp steamed broccoli for a bright and citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked brown rice
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup broccoli florets
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon of olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and brush the lemon-herb mixture over both sides of the meat.
Roast the chicken in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is roasting, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4 to 6 minutes until tender-crisp.
Warm the pre-cooked brown rice and toss it with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt if desired.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Plate the sliced chicken over the fluffy rice and serve with the steamed broccoli on the side.
