Lemon-Garlic Pan Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Savor the bright, zesty flavors of lemon and garlic accentuating tender, pan-seared chicken, perfectly complemented by crisp roasted asparagus. This dish delivers a balanced burst of savory and citrus notes, ideal for a wholesome breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for roasting the asparagus.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken is searing, arrange the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of half a lemon with minced garlic.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and drizzle the lemon-garlic mixture over it. Let it rest for a minute to absorb the flavors.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted asparagus. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of lemon zest for an extra burst of citrus flavor.
