Savor the delightful contrast of a tender, crispy chicken thigh paired with vibrant roasted asparagus drizzled in a rich garlic butter sauce. This dish brings a satisfying crunch and aromatic layers that make every bite a celebration of flavor and wholesome nourishment.
INGREDIENTS
1 piece (200g) Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thigh
1 bunch (150g) Asparagus
0.5 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken thigh dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sear the chicken thigh for 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden, crispy crust forms.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute), then stir in the lemon juice.
Once cooked, plate the chicken thigh alongside the roasted asparagus and drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, protein-packed meal.
