5.5 oz boneless skinless chicken breast

0.5 cup cooked brown rice

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 clove garlic

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

0.5 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 2

  Heat half of the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.

• 3

  Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the surface is golden brown.

• 4

  While the chicken cooks, mince the garlic clove and trim the ends off the fresh green beans.

• 5

  Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a plate; immediately drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the warm chicken.

• 6

  In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil, green beans, and minced garlic.

• 7

  Sauté the green beans for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

• 8

  Warm the cooked brown rice if necessary and serve the lemon-herb chicken alongside the garlic green beans and rice.
