      03 Method
      • Step 1
        Heat a large skillet (with lid) over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder and parsley.
      • Step 2
        Add the butter to the skillet and cook chicken in hot butter until browned, but not cooked all the way through (about 2 minutes per side). Remove chicken from skillet to a plate nearby.
      • Step 3
        Add the rice, chicken stock, lemon zest, lemon juice and parsley to the skillet over medium heat and use a wooden spoon to scrape the browned bits from the pan. Let rice come to a small boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Place the chicken on top of the rice mixture, cover with lid and let cook an additional 20 to 25 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
      • Step 4
        Garnish the chicken with lemon slices and extra parsley if desired. Enjoy right away!
