Solo Baked Chicken Breast and Lemon Rice image

This solo meal can be doubled, and if you have an instant read thermometer with an oven probe, the dish can be ignored until you are summoned to the kitchen. Serve with a green salad or maybe my Pickel Dilly Green Beans. Cooking is a Creative Sport.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover rotisserie chicken and it turned out great. The lemon rice was a great way to add some flavor to the chicken.
