INGREDIENTS

5.5 oz chicken breast

0.5 cup cooked white rice

1 cup broccoli florets

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp lemon zest

1 tbsp lemon juice

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Place the chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and brush the lemon-herb mixture evenly over both sides.

• 4

  Roast the chicken in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the outside is slightly golden.

• 5

  While the chicken is roasting, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water for 5 to 6 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

• 6

  Warm the pre-cooked white rice in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming.

• 7

  Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

• 8

  Plate the fluffy rice, top with the sliced lemon chicken, and serve with the steamed broccoli on the side.
