ONE POT LEMON HERB CHICKEN & RICEFrom: Tiffany @ lecremedelacrumb.com/Buttery chicken and lemon herb rice all fixed in 30 minutes in one pot! Where have you been all my life one pot dishes?? Why has everyone else in the world known how wonderful they were while I avoided them? I have no good answers for those questions. But it doesn’t really matter one way or the other – one pot dishes are here to stay on this blog. Do you mind? Try this one out and I guarantee you won’t mind one bit!Prep time: 5 min Cook time: 25 min Total time: 30 min Serves: 4INGREDIENTS for the chicken 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts 2 tablespoons butter salt and pepper to taste 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning for the rice 1 cup uncooked rice (white or brown) 2¼ cups chicken broth (I used low sodium) juice of 1 lemon 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
INSTRUCTIONS Melt butter over medium heat in a large skillet or pan (one that has a lid). Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste, and Italian seasoning. Brown chicken in the butter for 1-2 minutes on each side. (Chicken shouldn't be cooked through at this point) Transfer chicken to a plate. Add rice, chicken broth, lemon juice, and remaining Italian seasoning to the pan (no need to clean it first). Place chicken on top, then cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes until liquid is dissolved. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired and lemon wedges for squeezing. Serve immediately.
