Ingredients

  • 1 chicken breast
  • 1 Roma tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 tub mozzarella, drained
  • 5-6 basil leaves, minced
  • 3-4 garlic cloves, sliced
  • 1/3 cup brown rice
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven (or toaster oven) to at 350˚F.

Place the boneless chicken breast onto a greased pan or foil. Place the garlic cloves on top. Cook in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken starts to brown.

While the chicken is in the oven, combine the rice with 2/3 cup of water and microwave for 4 minutes. Stir. Then microwave again for 4 minutes. Repeat until rice is fully cooked, or follow instructions on the back of package.

Once the chicken starts to brown, take it out of the oven and remove the garlic cloves. Then top it with basil, tomato and mozzarella. Put it back in the oven for another 5-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked and the cheese has melted.

Place a handful of lettuce on the plate and top with rice and then the caprese chicken. Serve warm.
