INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
6 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for roasting)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for searing)
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley, Thyme blend)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil over the asparagus and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss lightly to coat evenly.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until tender and slightly crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the shrimp dry. In a small bowl, combine minced garlic (from 2 cloves), 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add the shrimp.
Sear the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are just cooked through. In the last minute, add the garlic herb mixture and toss to coat the shrimp evenly.
Remove the pan from heat and serve the garlic herb shrimp alongside the roasted asparagus.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice if desired, and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed meal!
