Chicken With Swiss Chard, Lemon and Rosemary Recipe
Chicken With Swiss Chard, Lemon and Rosemary
Ingredients
- 1 bunch (about 1-1/4 lbs/625 g) Swiss chard
- 4 (about 1lb/500g) boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 3/4 tsp (4 mL) salt
- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 tsp (10 mL) fresh rosemary, chopped or 1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried
- 2 tsp (10 mL) lemon rind, grated
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) lemon juice
Preparation
Strip Swiss chard leaves from stems; trim ends and chop stems and leaves separately and set aside.
Sprinkle half of the salt and pepper on chicken. Heat half of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook chicken, turning once, for about 10 to 12 minutes or just until no longer pink inside. Transfer to a plate.
Add remaining oil, salt and pepper, garlic and onion to skillet. Cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes or until softened.
Stir in Swiss chard stems; cook for 2 minutes. Add leaves, rosemary and lemon rind and cook, stirring, until just wilted enough to cover pan.
Nestle chicken into pan; reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 5 minutes or until chicken is hot and chard is tender. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
