EASY LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chicken and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side.
• Pour broth over chicken and cover skillet; lower heat to low and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a plate, reserving broth mixture in the skillet.
• Pour lemon juice into broth mixture and simmer until liquid is reduced by 1/3, 2 to 3 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

GREEK LEMON RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Wash rice well and then soak it for about 15 to 20 minutes in plenty of cold water (enough to cover the rice by 1 inch). You should be able to easily break a grain of rice by simply placing it between your thumb and index finger. Drain well.
• Heat about 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a large sauce pan with a lid (like this one) until oil is shimmering but not smoking. Add onions and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and orzo pasta. Toss around for a bit until the orzo has gained some color then stir in the rice. Toss to coat.
• Now add lemon juice and broth. Bring liquid to a rolling boil (it should reduce a little), then turn heat to low. Cover and let cook for about 20 minutes or until rice is done (liquid should be fully absorbed and rice should be tender but not sticky.)
• Remove rice from heat. For best results, leave it covered and do not disturb rice for about 10 minutes or so.
• Uncover and stir in parsley, dill weed and lemon zest. If you like, add a few slices of lemon on top for garnish. Enjoy!

RICE PILAF WITH THYME, LEMON AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pot set over medium-high. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Mix in the rice and cook for 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, except garnish, and bring to a boil. Cover the rice, turn the heat to its lowest setting, and cook 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender. Fluff the rice with a fork and transfer to a serving bowl. If desired, garnish the rice with sliced lemon and thyme sprigs. Recipe Options: Instead of thyme, use fresh tarragon, to taste, in this recipe. In place of lemon zest and juice, use orange zest and juice, or use a mix of citrus zest and juice in this recipe. For more aromatic rice, make the pilaf with long grain basmati or jasmine rice.

LEMON AND GARLIC RICE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat.
• Add the garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the lemon juice and cook for a further minute.
• Add the rice to the pan and stir to coat the rice with the liquid mixture, being careful not to burn the rice.
• Add the chicken stock (or crumble in the stock cubes and add boiling water), stir and cover to cook, turning down the heat.
• Check on the rice while cooking to ensure it does not run out of liquid and boil dry.
• After 20 minutes, remove the lid and stir. The rice should still have a little too much liquid at this stage so cook uncovered until the rice is done and the liquid is all absorbed.
• Mix in the chopped fresh parsley and serve hot!
