Olive oil0.9 tbsp (approx 10g)

Instructions

1

Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season liberally with salt and black pepper.

2

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the olive oil. Once shimmering, place the chicken skin-side down. Sear undisturbed for 6-7 minutes until the skin is deeply golden and crispy. Flip and cook for another 5-6 minutes until cooked through. Remove and let rest.

3

In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets with a splash of water. Cover and steam for 3-4 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.

4

Toss the cooked white rice with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and the remaining olive oil.

5

Plate the lemon-scented rice, top with the sliced crispy chicken, and arrange the tender broccoli alongside. Finish with a final sprinkle of flaky sea salt and fresh parsley.
