Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste, and half of the Italian seasoning.
Melt butter over medium heat in a large skillet or pan (one that has a lid). Brown chicken in the butter for 1-2 minutes on each side (Chicken shouldn’t be cooked through at this point). Transfer chicken to a plate.
Add rice, chicken broth, lemon juice, and remaining Italian seasoning to the pan (no need to clean it first). Place chicken on top, then cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes until liquid is dissolved.
Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired and lemon wedges for squeezing. Serve immediately.
