INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (boneless, skinless)
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice (from about 1/2 lemon)
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for the asparagus.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, thyme, and oregano to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it, ensuring it's well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prep the asparagus.
Trim the tough ends off the asparagus and toss them with the remaining marinade. Spread them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast for about 2-3 minutes on each side until it develops a crispy, golden crust.
Once seared, transfer the chicken breast to a baking dish and place it in the preheated oven. Roast the chicken and asparagus together for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken breast and serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
