INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus (approx 134g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Juice and zest of 1/2 Lemon
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F for roasting the asparagus.
Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Add the chicken breast and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Add the minced garlic during the last minute of searing to infuse the chicken with garlic aroma.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken and sprinkle lemon zest before transferring the pan off the heat.
Meanwhile, place the asparagus on a baking tray, drizzle with a little extra olive oil if desired, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
