Creamy Lemon Chicken and Rice with Broccoli

🍽 Bite of the Week features Bone-in Skin-on Chicken Breast

👇🏻 Here’s a market fresh meal idea:

Ingredients:

2 bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts

1 cup rice (cooked)

1 cup broccoli florets, steamed

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 lemon (juice and zest)

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 tbsp butter

1 tsp thyme (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley and lemon slices for garnish

Directions:

1. Sear the Chicken: Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear them skin-side down until golden brown (about 6-8 minutes). Flip and cook the other side for another 5 minutes, then remove the chicken and set aside.

2. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in chicken broth and heavy cream, then add lemon juice, zest, and thyme. Bring the sauce to a simmer.

3. Finish Cooking the Chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet and cook in the sauce for 10-15 minutes until fully cooked, spooning the sauce over the chicken occasionally.

4. Serve: Plate the chicken over a bed of cooked rice, with steamed broccoli on the side. Drizzle the creamy lemon sauce over the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices.
