And while an actor's life can have a glamorous side, it can also be hard work, with lots of long days on set. To make sure he has plenty of energy to get through those 14-hour days, the 64-year-old actor has a very specific eating plan, which he recently shared with Men’s Health.
Even though this meal sounds slightly intense, there’s a reason why Meloni is so consistent with his lunch. Read on to learn more.
Meloni has this meal dialed in from a nutrition standpoint. Ground chicken is a lean meat, delivering nearly 20 grams of protein per serving without a lot of fat. Brown rice is packed with magnesium and fiber for blood sugar control, while spinach delivers lots of antioxidants and iron.
It should come as no surprise that Meloni likes his dinners to be filled with whole foods. Meloni shared that he’ll usually have a “disciplined” meal of ground turkey, fish or chicken, with rice, spinach, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts. “I'm just not partial to really fatty meats—I like a filet mignon as opposed to a prime rib," he added.

How to Make Christopher Meloni’s Law & Order Lunch
Next, sauté ground chicken in a pan. For an extra bit of flavor, you can add some fresh garlic and a bit of olive oil to the pan. Add a little salt to the mixture and add other seasonings as you'd like.
Meloni didn’t specify if he cooks his spinach or not, so you have options there. While you can nestle your rice and chicken on top of a bed of fresh spinach, it’ll really taste amazing if you saute it with garlic and olive oil first. We're also not sure exactly how Meloni serves this trio, but we'd suggest making a rice bowl with the brown rice as a base, followed by the chicken and the spinach.
