INSTRUCTIONS
1. 1
Season chicken breasts with 1/2 tsp. of the salt, half the pepper, thyme and onion
powder. Set aside.
2. 2
Heat 1 tsp. of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high, add the vegetables and sauté
for 3 to 4 minutes until tender crisp. Massage the pouch of rice to loosen grains and
add with 1 Tbsp. water to the pan, stir and cook about 2 minutes more to heat
through. Remove from pan, set aside and keep warm.
3. 3
Return pan to medium-high heat, add chicken and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side to
brown. Remove from pan and set aside, leaving drippings in the pan.
4. 4
Return the pan to the heat and add minced garlic, sauté for 30 seconds. Add chicken
broth, heavy cream, remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, and the remaining pepper. Bring to a low
simmer, then stir in the lemon zest, juice, and Dijon mustard. Cook for 1 minute.
5. 5
Return the chicken to the pan with sauce, turn to coat, cover and simmer until the
chicken is cooked through and internal temperature is 165°F, about 3-4 minutes more.
Remove chicken from the pan, let rest for a 3-5 minutes, slice and add back into the
sauce.
6. 6
Arrange the rice and vegetable mixture on a plate and top with chicken and sauce.
