  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to pan, seasoned-side down. Cover and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Turn chicken over, and top each breast with 2 lemon slices. Cover and cook 6 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees F. Place chicken on a plate; cover loosely to keep warm.

  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add sun-dried tomatoes and garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add rice, chicken stock, remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper to skillet. Gradually add spinach, stirring gently until spinach wilts. Nestle chicken breasts back in skillet. Sprinkle with cheese and pine nuts.

The chicken turned out tender and moist. I kept a lid on the pan the whole time which gave me broth while browning the chicken. I used this for my broth. just had to add a little water to it. I used two bags of the Uncle Ben's rice because my chicken pieces were so big. I thinks this recipe would be good with mild fish as well. Read More

This has become a staple in our menu. We use riced cauliflower instead of the rice. I also add more veggies. I rarely have leftovers. Read More
