Quick Pan-Seared Lemon Herb Chicken
Chicken breast pan-seared until golden and juicy, served with fluffy quinoa and vibrant steamed broccoli tossed in a bright lemon-herb sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1.5 cup broccoli florets
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp dried thyme
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and dried thyme.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 3 minutes; in the same pan, briefly sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds before whisking in the lemon juice.
Serve the sliced chicken over the cooked quinoa with the steamed broccoli, drizzling the lemon-garlic pan sauce over everything.
