Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the carrot. Heat the oven to 425F. Pat the chicken dry, do not rinse it, and season it with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  2. Place the chicken and carrots on an oiled sheet pan. Roast for 20-25 minutes, adding the broccoli during the last 10 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the thickest chicken portion reads 165°F (74°C).
  3. While the chicken roasts, rinse the rice. Simmer it in salted water until tender, about 18-22 minutes, then drain if needed.
  4. Wash the cutting board, knife, and your hands with soap and water before handling the cooked chicken. Slice the chicken and serve it over rice and vegetables with lemon juice.
