Ingredients
Cooking Steps
Marinate the chicken: Combine olive oil, lemon juice/zest, minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, salt, pepper, and optional herbs (e.g., oregano or Italian seasoning). Coat 2-4 boneless chicken breasts and let sit 20-60 minutes (or overnight).
Cook the rice: Rinse 1-1.5 cups white rice (jasmine/basmati). Cook in water or broth with a pinch of salt until fluffy. Optionally add a bit of butter or herbs for extra flavor. Fluff and set aside.
Grill or pan-sear the chicken: Heat a grill pan, skillet, or outdoor grill to medium-high. Cook chicken 5-7 minutes per side until golden, charred marks appear, and internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Rest 5 minutes, then slice if desired.
Prepare fresh elements: Halve cherry tomatoes, tear or chiffonade fresh basil leaves, cut lemon into wedges.
