Lemon Garlic Pan Seared Chicken Breast with Steamed Broccoli
A pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and garlic, paired with vibrant steamed broccoli and finished with a drizzle of silky olive oil.
INGREDIENTS
4.75 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 cups Broccoli Florets
1.25 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
0.25 tsp Sea Salt
0.25 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat one tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
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 is cooking, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water, cover, and steam for 5 minutes until tender-crisp.
During the last 2 minutes of the chicken's cooking time, add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Pour the fresh lemon juice over the chicken in the pan, swirling to combine with the garlic and juices, then remove from heat.
Transfer the chicken to a plate, serve alongside the steamed broccoli, and drizzle the remaining quarter tablespoon of olive oil over the broccoli for a silky finish.
