Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 cup uncooked white rice
- 2 ¼ cups chicken broth (I used low sodium)

Preparation
- 1
Step 1
Melt butter over medium heat in a large skillet or pan (one that has a lid). Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste, and Italian seasoning. Brown chicken in the butter for 1-2 minutes on each side. (Chicken shouldn't be cooked through at this point) Transfer chicken to a plate. - 2
Step 2
Add rice, chicken broth, lemon juice, and remaining Italian seasoning to the pan (no need to clean it first). Place chicken on top, then cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes until liquid is dissolved. - 3
Step 3
Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired and lemon wedges for squeezing. Serve immediately. Bon appetit!
