Lemon Herb Chicken with Brown Rice Pilaf
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served over a fluffy brown rice pilaf that offers a satisfying, nutty crunch in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
0.25 cup dry brown rice
0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
In a small pot, sauté the minced garlic in half of the olive oil over medium heat until fragrant.
Add the dry brown rice and chicken broth to the pot, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 40 minutes until tender.
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and lemon zest.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the chicken to deglaze the pan.
Fluff the rice pilaf with a fork and serve the chicken on top, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
