INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

1 cup green peas

0.75 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 clove garlic

1 tbsp lemon juice

0.5 tsp lemon zest

1 tbsp fresh parsley

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp dried oregano

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 the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 3

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 4

  Transfer the cooked chicken to a clean plate and allow it to rest for 5 minutes to lock in the juices.

• 5

  In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute over medium heat until it becomes fragrant and soft.

• 6

  Add the green peas to the pan and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently until they are tender and vibrant green.

• 7

  Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh parsley, tossing the peas well to coat them in the bright citrus flavors.

• 8

  Slice the rested chicken against the grain and serve immediately alongside the warm sautéed peas.
