INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by patting the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and a drizzle of olive oil to form a simple marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly over the chicken breast and let it sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and once shimmering, place the chicken breast in the pan.
Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the asparagus with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted asparagus. Optionally, drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chicken for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant, nutritious meal.
