The rice takes on a light lemon aroma, the chicken turns golden brown, and the spinach melts softly into the dish. The result is a plate full of fresh, hearty flavor that you can prepare in a single pan without a lot of dishes or fuss.<\/p>\n                        <p>Since you don\u2019t use cream or butter, this dish fits well into a cow\u2019s milk-free diet. The flavors remain pure and light, and it works just as well with plant-based margarine or oil. This is handy if you want to avoid cow\u2019s milk or simply feel like a light meal made with everyday supermarket ingredients.<\/p>\n          \n    <div class=\"noomooo-recipe-meta\">\n              <div class=\"nm-meta-item\">\n          <strong>Kitchen<\/strong>\n          <a class=\"nm-pill-link\" href=\"https:\/\/noomooo.com\/en\/tag\/keuken-fusion\/\"><span class=\"nm-pill\">Fusion<\/span><\/a>        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"nm-meta-item\">\n          <strong>Time<\/strong>\n          <a class=\"nm-pill-link\" href=\"https:\/\/noomooo.com\/en\/tag\/tijd-25-min\/\"><span class=\"nm-pill\">25 min<\/span><\/a>        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"nm-meta-item\">\n          <strong>Difficulty<\/strong>\n          <a class=\"nm-pill-link\" href=\"https:\/\/noomooo.com\/en\/tag\/niveau-makkelijk\/\"><span class=\"nm-pill\">Easy<\/span><\/a>        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"nm-meta-item\">\n          <strong>Equipment<\/strong>\n          <a class=\"nm-pill-link\" href=\"https:\/\/noomooo.com\/en\/tag\/app-kookpan\/\"><span class=\"nm-pill\">Cooking Pot<\/span><\/a>        <\/div>\n        \n      <div class=\"nm-meta-item\">\n        <strong>Portions<\/strong>\n        <div class=\"nm-porties\">\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"nm-btn nm-minus\">-<\/button>\n          <input class=\"nm-servings\" type=\"number\" min=\"1\" value=\"4\" aria-label=\"Portions\">\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"nm-btn nm-plus\">+<\/button>\n          <span>persons<\/span>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"noomooo-ingredients-widget\" data-base-servings=\"4\">\n      <h2>Ingredients<\/h2>\n      <ul class=\"nm-ingredients-list\">\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"300\"            data-unit=\"g\"\n            data-name=\"kipfilet\"\n                      >\n            300 g chicken breast          <\/li>\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"250\"            data-unit=\"g\"\n            data-name=\"rijst\"\n                      >\n            250 g rice          <\/li>\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"150\"            data-unit=\"g\"\n            data-name=\"spinazie\"\n                      >\n            150 g spinach          <\/li>\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"1\"            data-unit=\"stuk\"\n            data-name=\"citroen\"\n                      >\n            1 lemon          <\/li>\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"1\"            data-unit=\"el\"\n            data-name=\"olie\"\n                      >\n            1 tbsp oil          <\/li>\n                  <li\n            data-amount=\"1\"            data-unit=\"snuf\"\n            data-name=\"zout en peper\"\n                      >\n            salt and pepper          <\/li>\n              <\/ul>\n      <p class=\"nm-help\">Adjust the number of servings.

This will allow the fresh scent to infuse the grains nicely. Stir occasionally so the rice doesn\u2019t stick to the bottom.<\/p>              <h3>Step 2: Frying chicken<\/h3>        <p>Cut the chicken breast into pieces and heat the oil in a skillet. Saut\u00e9 the chicken over medium heat until golden brown. Let the chicken cook slowly so it stays tender and doesn't dry out.<\/p>              <h3>Step 3: Add the spinach<\/h3>        <p>Add the spinach to the pan with the chicken. Stir until the leaves have wilted and most of the liquid has evaporated. This only takes a few minutes.<\/p>              <h3>Step 4: Mix and season<\/h3>        <p>Fold the cooked lemon rice into the chicken and spinach. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and, if desired, a squeeze of lemon juice. Taste it to make sure the balance between fresh and savory is just right.<\/p>              <h3>Step 5: Serving<\/h3>        <p>Serve immediately while it's still warm and fragrant. A simple bowl or deep plate works just fine. If you like, you can sprinkle some extra lemon zest on top for a fresh touch.<\/p>          <\/div>\n\n          <div class=\"noomooo-nutrition\">\n        <h2>Nutritional values per person<\/h2>\n        <ul class=\"nm-nutri-list\">\n                      <li>\ud83e\udd66 <strong>Vegetables:<\/strong> 70 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83c\udf5a <strong>Carbohydrates:<\/strong> 45 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83c\udf57 <strong>Protein:<\/strong> 26 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83e\udd51 <strong>Grease:<\/strong> 10 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83c\udf3e <strong>Fiber:<\/strong> 3 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83e\uddc2 <strong>Salt:<\/strong> 1.1 g<\/li>\n                      <li>\ud83d\udd25 <strong>Energy:<\/strong> 520 kcal<\/li>\n                  <\/ul>\n      <\/div>\n    \n          <div class=\"noomooo-tips\">\n        <h2>Tips &amp; label<\/h2>\n                  <p>Add some fresh herbs, such as parsley or mint, for extra freshness.<\/p>                  <p>Serve with extra spinach or a green salad for more vegetables.<\/p>                  <p>When purchasing spice blends and lemon products, check for additives containing milk ingredients.<\/p>                  <p>Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to two days and reheat gently in a pan with a splash of water.<\/p>                  <p>Use a heavy-bottomed pan so the rice doesn't stick and the chicken cooks evenly.<\/p>              <\/div>\n    \n          <div class=\"noomooo-footer\">\n        <h2>More about cooking cow's milk free<\/h2>        <p>Rice dishes like this are ideal as a base for cow's milk-free meals.
