PREPARATION

  • 1

    Rinse the basmati rice under cool water until the water runs clear. Set aside to drain.

  • 2

    Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through. Once done, let it rest and then slice into strips.

  • 3

    In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until softened and fragrant.

  • 4

    Add the rinsed rice to the saucepan and toast lightly for 1-2 minutes.

  • 5

    Pour in 1 cup of water (or low-sodium chicken broth for extra flavor) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

  • 6

    While the rice is cooking, zest and juice the lemon and chop the fresh parsley.

  • 7

    Once the rice is done, fluff it with a fork and gently stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped parsley. Adjust salt and pepper as needed.

  • 8

    Plate the rice pilaf and top with sliced grilled chicken. Serve warm and enjoy the fresh, zesty flavors of this balanced meal.
