Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp salted butter
1 lb chicken tenders
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups rice, brown , whole grain, instant
14 1/2 oz chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tsp lemon zest, freshly grated
2 cups baby spinach, fresh

Directions:

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the chicken and garlic. Cook until the chicken is golden brown; set aside on a plate and keep warm.
Add the rest of the ingredients except the spinach to the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and reduce heat to low and cook until the juice is absorbed (usually about 10 minutes).
Add the spinach to the skillet and mix. Serve on a plate topped with the chicken.
