INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 whole Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried rosemary.
Finely mince the garlic and zest the lemon. Squeeze the lemon to extract the juice and set aside.
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until a crispy golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Spread the broccoli evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crispy and tender.
After cooking, let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Drizzle with a little extra lemon juice if desired.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted broccoli and serve immediately.
