INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
8 spears Asparagus (134g)
2 tsp Olive Oil (9g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Couscous (100g)
1 tbsp Mixed Herbs
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, mixed herbs, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and coat it evenly with the marinade. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Arrange the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with any remaining marinade, and toss to coat.
Place the chicken breast on a separate baking tray. Bake both the chicken and asparagus in the preheated oven. The chicken should bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), and the asparagus should be tender and lightly browned, about 15-20 minutes.
While the chicken and asparagus are roasting, prepare the whole wheat couscous according to package directions.
Plate the baked chicken with a side of roasted asparagus and a serving of couscous. Enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal!
