INGREDIENTS
8 oz Chicken Breast (227g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (13.5g)
1/2 medium Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, mix the juice of half a lemon with minced garlic to create the marinade.
Rub the marinade over the chicken breast and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F.
Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Serve the pan-seared chicken with a side of roasted asparagus, drizzled with any remaining pan juices and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
