Steps

1. In a bowl, marinate the chicken breast with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper for at least 15 minutes. 2. While the chicken is marinating, steam the broccoli florets until bright green and tender, about 4-5 minutes. 3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. 4. In a plate, serve the cooked whole grain rice, topped with the sautéed chicken, and arrange the steamed broccoli on the side. 5. Garnish with lemon wedges if desired, and enjoy your nutritious meal!
