1 ½ lb. chicken tenders
1 t grated lemon zest
2 T lemon juice
1 T water
1 T oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ t salt
¼ t pepper
¼ t rosemary
Pam

8.8 package precooked brown rice
¼ c chopped shallots
1 garlic clove, minced
2 c packed fresh baby spinach, chopped coarsely
¼ t salt
¼ t pepper
½ t garlic powder

Heat a grill pan or skillet and spray with Pam and cook chicken 4 minutes per side or until browned and done. Combine lemon zest, water, juice, oil, garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary and spoon over chicken then cover and let sit 5 minutes.

Microwave the rice to heat it and keep it warm. Heat a skillet and spray with Pam then cook shallot and garlic 3 minutes or until tender. Put spinach in a bowl and add rice and shallots and mix together so the heat wilts the spinach a little. Stir in salt, pepper and garlic powder. Serve alongside the chicken.
