INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for chicken marinade)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for asparagus)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Fresh Rosemary
1/2 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 clove Garlic, minced
8 spears Asparagus
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the lemon herb mixture over it. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Arrange the marinated chicken and asparagus on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the asparagus is spread out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
While the chicken and asparagus are baking, warm the pre-cooked quinoa if needed.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chicken for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed meal.
