Ingredients:

2 large chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon)

Black pepper to taste (about 1/4 teaspoon)

1 cup steamed broccoli florets

1/2 cup cauliflower rice

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Preparation Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Rub chicken breasts with olive oil evenly on both sides.
Sprinkle the herb and spice mixture over the chicken breasts, rubbing gently to coat well.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake the chicken for 15-18 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is baking, steam the broccoli florets until tender but still crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
In a separate pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat and sauté the cauliflower rice for 3-4 minutes until slightly golden.
Serve the baked herb chicken breasts with steamed broccoli and sautéed cauliflower rice on the side.
