Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a boil. Add long-grain rice, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and stir in chopped parsley.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the rice is cooking, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss seasonal vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until tender.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the grilled chicken alongside herbed rice and grilled seasonal vegetables.
