Pan-Seared Chicken with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Golden pan-seared chicken breast drizzled with a bright, zesty lemon-herb sauce and served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp steamed broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 tbsp Olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Broccoli florets
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, steam the broccoli florets for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to ensure the juices redistribute.
In the same pan off the heat, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and chopped parsley, scraping up any flavorful browned bits.
Serve the chicken over the warm quinoa and steamed broccoli, drizzling the bright lemon-herb sauce over the top before serving.
