INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

1 cup green peas

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1 tsp lemon zest

1 clove garlic

1 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 2

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

• 3

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

• 4

  Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate to rest for 5 minutes.

• 5

  In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, using the moisture to scrape up any browned bits from the chicken.

• 6

  Add the green peas and lemon zest to the skillet, tossing frequently for 2 to 3 minutes until the peas are tender and bright green.

• 7

  Turn off the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley.

• 8

  Slice the rested chicken breast into strips and serve immediately over the warm lemon-herb peas.
