  1. 1

    Season the chicken

    4 min

    Pat the chicken dry. Toss it with the measured garlic powder, paprika, half the olive oil, and half the lemon juice.

  2. 2

    Brown the chicken

    10 min

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add the chicken in one layer and cook without moving it for 4 minutes; turn and cook 4 to 6 minutes more.

    The thickest piece must reach 165°F and show no translucent center.

  3. 3

    Heat the rice and vegetables

    7 min

    Move the chicken to a plate. Add the rice, vegetables, and 1 tablespoon water to the skillet. Cover and heat, stirring once, until steaming throughout.

  4. 4

    Finish the bowl

    2 min

    Return the chicken to the skillet, add the remaining lemon juice, and toss for 1 minute. Spoon into a bowl and serve.

Storage

Cool leftovers promptly, refrigerate in a sealed container, and use within 3 days.

Serving notes

  • Keep the lemon juice for the final minute so the bowl stays bright.

Substitutions

  • • Use an equal serving of a compatible protein already in your plan.
  • • Swap the base for a catalog-mapped grain or vegetable with similar cooking needs.

Storage and reheating

Cool leftovers promptly, refrigerate in a sealed container, and use within 3 days.

Reheat refrigerated portions until steaming throughout. Add fresh garnishes after reheating.
