Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside to rest.
In the same skillet, melt the ghee and add the diced yellow onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent and fragrant.
Add the dry basmati rice to the skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes until the edges are slightly translucent.
Pour in the chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the rice from heat and stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and freshly chopped parsley.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it over the warm, fluffy rice pilaf.
