Lemon is our go-to ingredient for brightening up any meal, and this dish is positively bursting with citrusy goodness! Paprika-coated chicken is drizzled with a creamy, lemon-and-thyme-spiked pan sauce that’d taste good on pretty much anything. On the side, there’s tender roasted green beans and steamy rice with lemon zest and pistachios. When life gives you lemons, you know what to do.

Preparation
2
Prep

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim green beans if necessary. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Strip 1 tsp thyme leaves (2 tsp for 4 servings) from stems; finely chop leaves. Zest and quarter lemon.

3
Roast Green Beans

• Toss green beans on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 12-15 minutes.

4
Cook Rice

• Meanwhile, melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites; cook, stirring occasionally, until just softened, 1 minute. • Stir in rice, ¾ cup water (1 ½ cups for 4), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

5
Cook Chicken

• While rice cooks, pat chicken* dry with paper towels and season all over with paprika, salt, and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. TIP: If chicken begins to brown too quickly, lower the heat. • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

6
Make Sauce

• Melt 1 TBSP butter in same pan used for chicken over medium heat. Add chopped thyme; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in stock concentrate and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4 servings). Bring to a simmer, then immediately turn off heat. • Stir in sour cream and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with pepper.

7
Finish & Serve

• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lemon zest and pistachios. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide rice, green beans, and chicken between plates. Top chicken with sauce and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side. ***Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.***
