EASY LEMON CHICKEN WITH RICE



Easy Lemon Chicken With Rice image

This chicken is so easy to make! I typically serve it with a long grain Basmati rice, and then a salad or other green vegetable. I don't know if "Lemon Chicken" is the best description, but it does call for lemon juice! I wanted to find a good chicken recipe, and I ended up tweaking until it was just perfect!

Provided by beckman03

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast (split and halved)
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
parsley
garlic powder
lemon pepper (optional)
pepper
salt
1/4-1/2 cup lemon juice (depends on how "lemony" you want it)
5 -6 chicken bouillon cubes
3 1/2-4 cups water
2 tablespoons cornstarch, dissolved in
1/2 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Season chicken breasts generously with garlic powder, parsley, pepper, and if desired (for a more lemon taste) lemon pepper. Sprinkle a light amount of salt of the chicken.
  • Heat up a skillet on high heat, and add butter and olive oil. Once hot (a sprinkle of water will "sizzle" in the oil), add seasoned chicken breasts.
  • Sear chicken on both sides until lightly browned, then remove the chicken from the skillet to a plate (keep burner on high the entire time).
  • Add lemon juice to the hot skillet and swirl it around to loosen all the chicken juices and flavor from the pan, but DO NOT DISCARD.
  • Add water quickly after lemon juice has picked up the spices. Add bouillon cubes and bring to a boil.
  • Stir in corn starch that has been dissolved in 1/2 Celsius cold water.
  • Wait for a reboil, and then add the chicken breasts back into the gravy mixture.
  • Wait for another reboil and then cover the skillet, and turn the heat to low.
  • Let chicken simmer for 15-20 minutes (I usually start rice in the rice maker at this point because our rice only takes about 15-20 minutes to cook, but you'll have to adjust based on your needs and equipment).
  • Serve chicken over rice.

ONE-PAN CHICKEN AND RICE WITH PRESERVED LEMON



One-Pan Chicken and Rice with Preserved Lemon image

This skillet chicken and basmati rice dish is anything but plain and humble. A homemade seasoning mix, preserved lemon and spiced and pan-seared chicken breasts give the dish bold flavor that's hard to resist. It's quick enough to make as a delicious weeknight dinner but tasty enough for entertaining or a special-occasion meal.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups basmati rice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 to 8 ounces each)
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 preserved lemon (see Cook's Note)
3/4 cup pitted green olives
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Rinse and drain the rice 3 to 5 times to get rid of excess starch. Set aside.
  • Combine the cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, turmeric and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and sprinkle them on both sides with half of the spice mixture.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large (12-inch) pan or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When hot (but not smoking), add the chicken and sear until it forms a golden brown crust, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  • Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons oil into the same pan and place over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the rice and the remaining spice mix and stir to combine.
  • Remove the flesh of the preserved lemon (discard the seeds and save the flesh for another use). Finely chop the lemon rind (peel). Add the rind to the rice followed by the olives. Stir to evenly distribute the olives. Pour the broth and 1 1/2 cups water into the pan and increase the heat to medium high. Bring to a simmer, place the chicken breasts back in the pan and cover the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes (see Cook's Note).
  • You can serve the chicken as is, or shred it and add it back to the rice. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
