INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Start by patting the chicken breast dry. Season it lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Mince the garlic clove finely and combine it with lemon juice in a small bowl.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp of olive oil.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until it develops a golden crust and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 tsp of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a little extra black pepper if desired.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender with slightly crispy tips.
Once the chicken is cooked, drizzle the lemon and garlic mixture over it and let it rest for a minute to absorb all the flavors.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus, and serve immediately.
