INGREDIENTS
2 pieces Chicken Thighs (approx 240g total)
1 bunch Asparagus (approx 200g)
0.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt to taste
Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. In a bowl, combine the juice and zest of one lemon, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, 0.5 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated.
Place the chicken thighs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Arrange the trimmed asparagus around the chicken.
Drizzle a tiny bit more olive oil (or use the same mixture) over the asparagus and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
If desired, broil for the last 2-3 minutes to further crisp the chicken skin.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your balanced meal!
