Now, let’s roll up our sleeves and start cooking. Follow these steps for a dish that’s sure to impress:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic, as this can give a bitter taste to the dish.
3. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat with the garlic oil. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the rice to toast slightly.
4. Pour in the chicken broth, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
5. Stir in the cooked chicken, Parmesan cheese, and lemon zest. Mix until everything is well combined and the cheese has melted into the rice.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving to add a burst of color and freshness.

And there you have it — a dish that’s as heartwarming as a Devonshire sunset!
