INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
Juice and zest of 1/2 Lemon
4 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet and rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over it. Allow it to marinate for 10 minutes if time permits.
Arrange the asparagus spears on another baking tray. Drizzle lightly with a little extra olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Place both trays in the oven. Roast the chicken for about 20-25 minutes until cooked through and the skin becomes slightly crispy. Roast the asparagus for about 12-15 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the chicken and asparagus are roasting, prepare the quinoa if not done already.
Plate the roasted chicken, asparagus, and serve with the cooked quinoa on the side.
Enjoy this balanced meal that's both flavorful and nutritious.
