INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast, skinless
2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary
1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus Spear
0.75 cup Cooked Brown Rice
Salt and Black Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. While waiting, toss the asparagus with a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small drizzle of olive oil and sear the chicken breast for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and pour any remaining marinade over it. Place both the chicken and asparagus in the oven. Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
While the chicken and asparagus are finishing in the oven, reheat or prepare the cooked brown rice to serve warm.
Plate the chicken breast with roasted asparagus and a side of fluffy brown rice. Drizzle any extra pan juices over the chicken for added flavor and enjoy.
