Crispy Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken Thighs with Roasted Asparagus
Savor the vibrant flavors of zesty lemon and aromatic herbs on tender, skinless chicken thighs paired with crisp roasted asparagus. This dish is a hearty yet light option, offering a satisfying balance of protein and freshness with a delightful crispy finish.
INGREDIENTS
2 skinless chicken thighs (approx. 240g total)
200g asparagus
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 medium lemon
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary & thyme (chopped)
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken thighs dry. In a bowl, combine the juice of 1 lemon, minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
Rub the herb-lemon mixture evenly over the chicken thighs.
Place the seasoned chicken on one side of the baking sheet.
Trim the tough ends of the asparagus and arrange them on the opposite side of the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender with a slight crispness.
For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, and serve immediately.
