- For Sauteed Chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless Chicken breasts (175 g | 6 oz each)
- kosher salt (to taste)
- freshly ground Black pepper (to taste)
- 1 Tbsp good-quality olive oil
- 1 fresh lemon cut into wedges (for drizzling)

- 1 ½ cups water

- ½ Tbsp butter (optional)
- ¾ cup Long grain rice

Preparation steps
1.
For Sauteed Chicken:
2.
Rinse chicken under cold running water and pat completely dry with paper towels. Season chicken lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
3.
Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet, set over medium-high. Add chicken and cook 4 to 6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and juices run clear.
4.
For Rice and Sugar Snap Peas:
5.
In a saucepan, bring water, salt and butter to a boil.
6.
Add rice, stirring to incorporate. Cover tightly and reduce heat to medium low. Cook rice for 20 minutes. Do not remove lid.
7.
Remove pan from heat source and fluff rice with a fork.
8.
Meanwhile, fill a large saucepan halfway with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Place a steamer basket over the pan and carefully place the pea pods in the basket. Cover and steam the peas for 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender crisp.
9.
Divide chicken, rice and pea pods between serving plates. Garnish with lemon wedges.
