Chicken and Lentils with Rosemary image

Moist, flavorful chicken breast with a delicious side of lentils. I suggest serving the lentils over a bed of arugula with the chicken breast on the side. Whatever you do, do not leave out the lemon juice.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 bone-in chicken breast halves, with skin
2 teaspoons seasoned salt (eg. LAWRY'S®)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 carrots, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (2 ounce) jar pimento peppers, drained and chopped
2 cups chicken broth
½ cup dry red wine
1 (16 ounce) package steamed lentils
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Season the chicken liberally with seasoned salt. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken and cook until well browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
  • Lower the heat, add the onion, and cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, carrot, and pimento, and cook and stir an additional 3 minutes. Pour the chicken broth into the pan, and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir in the lentils, rosemary, wine, and vinegar. Return the chicken to the pan; simmer until chicken breasts are no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat; stir the lemon juice into the sauce and serve.
