INGREDIENTS
1 piece (250g) Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thigh
1 bunch (150g) Fresh Asparagus
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon (zest and juice)
1 Garlic Clove, minced
1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme, chopped
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, the zest and juice of the lemon, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken thigh in a baking dish and rub the lemon-herb mixture all over it, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Arrange the asparagus spears around the chicken. Drizzle any remaining olive oil mixture over the asparagus.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the asparagus is tender with slight charred edges.
If you prefer crispier skin on the chicken, switch to broil for the last 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, and serve warm.
