Lemon Chicken & Rice with Basil

1 cup dry Instant brown rice
1 can chicken broth
Lemon
1 lb Chicken breast
sprigs of fresh basil

Brown chicken in non-stick pan. Remove.

Cook rice, broth (add enough water to broth to make 2 cups), and amount of lemon zest to your liking. I used a lot. Cook covered for the amount of time required by the box on instant rice.

Add chicken back in and squeeze half of juice from one lemon. Cook until chicken is done.

Turn heat off, add rest of lemon juice and sprigs of fresh basil. Enjoy!

This was so easy and tasted really good. It was supposed to be something else but I didn't have all the ingredients so I just made it up as I went along.
