The ingredients for Paulina's Filling Lemon Dinner are:

Chicken Breast, no skin, 8 ounces

Green Giant Cut Green Beans, can, 2 cup
Lemon Juice and zest from, 1 lemon
Fresh ground black pepper, 2 tbsp
Kosher salt, 2 tbsp
Garlic lemon pepper (or salt) - to taste

Here is how you make Paulina's Filling Lemon Dinner:

First off, you're boiling 2 breasts, but only using 8 oz of it - the rest can be refrigerated for up to three days and can be used as chicken salad or in a chicken sandwich. The reason you're boiling 2 breasts is because 1. It's easier than portioning out 8oz of raw chicken and 2. It's how much you need in order to make good stock.So you put the breasts in a saucepan (after cleaning them thoroughly) and add enough water to cover them with about an inch or so of water. Add the lemon juice and zest of one lemon to the water, as well as enough salt and pepper to taste. I like to add garlic lemon pepper too, but that's just because I like things extra lemony. Bring the breasts to a boil and let cook for about 20 minutes - until the liquid gets to be a rich golden color.Remove the breasts and let them cool. Strain the stock and measure out 1.5 cups of it. Put the 1.5 cups of stock back into the saucepan and add 1 cup of rice.Bring rice and stock to a boil, then cover until the rice has absorbed all the stock. Fluff with fork.By now the chicken should be cooled. Shred it with a fork. Drain off the liquid from the canned green beans (I use the low sodium kind).Mix the chicken, green beans and rice together.Each serving is .75 cups of rice, 4 oz of chicken, and 1 cup of green beans.Enjoy!Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user PAULINANILUAP.
