Panko-Crusted Chicken with Lemon-Parmesan Orzo
Pan-seared chicken breast coated in crispy panko breadcrumbs, served over a bed of zesty lemon-parmesan orzo with a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
2 tbsp Panko breadcrumbs
0.25 cup Dry orzo
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and cook the orzo according to package directions until al dente.
While the orzo cooks, season the chicken breast on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Press the panko breadcrumbs firmly onto both sides of the chicken to create an even coating.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Drain the orzo and return it to the pot, stirring in the lemon zest, lemon juice, grated parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley.
Slice the panko-crusted chicken and serve it immediately over the warm, fragrant orzo.
