INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

0.25 cup Dry basmati rice

1 cup Broccoli florets

1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice

0.5 tsp Lemon zest

1 clove Garlic

0.25 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

• 2

  Combine the rice with 0.5 cup of water in a small pot, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

• 3

  Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 4

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.

• 5

  While the chicken is cooking, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

• 6

  During the last minute of cooking the chicken, add the minced garlic, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the skillet to create a light pan sauce.

• 7

  Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and serve the chicken and broccoli alongside it, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the protein.
