Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 head garlic, cloves separated and peeled
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
1 bunch medium asparagus (about 1 pound), trimmed and halved
1 pint grape tomatoes
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (about 1 ounce)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Put a rimmed baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes and garlic cloves with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl; set aside.
  • Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Bake until the chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and tent with foil; leave the potatoes and garlic on the baking sheet.
  • Add the asparagus and tomatoes to the reserved bowl; toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add to the baking sheet with the potatoes. Bake until the vegetables are tender and the tomatoes start to burst, 13 to 15 minutes.

Categories     Chicken     Rice     Lemon     Asparagus     Carrot     Spring     Dill     Simmer     Boil

Yield Serves 4; 1 1/2 heaping cups per serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup uncooked instant brown rice
1/2 cup water, 2 cups water, and 2 cups water, divided use
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, all visible fat discarded
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons coarsely snipped fresh dillweed
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 medium green onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the rice and 1/2 cup water. Cook using the package directions. Remove from the heat. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, stir together 2 cups water, the chicken, garlic, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, leaving the remaining soup in the pan. Set the chicken aside.
  • Pour the final 2 cups water into the pan. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Add the carrots. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.

  • Asparagus has a natural bending point where the tough part of the stem begins. To trim asparagus, hold the spears at the top and the bottom, bend them, and snap at the bending point. Save the tough parts for use in making Vegetable Broth (page 53) or discard them.
