INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the asparagus and set a skillet on medium-high heat for the chicken.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, minced garlic, half of the lemon juice, and your choice of chopped fresh herbs (such as thyme or rosemary) if available.
Add 1 teaspoon of olive oil to the skillet and sear the chicken breast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden, then reduce the heat slightly and cook through until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, trim the woody ends of the asparagus and toss with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Warm the cooked quinoa if needed, and plate it alongside the chicken and asparagus.
Finish the chicken with an extra drizzle of fresh lemon juice before serving, adding brightness to the dish.
