INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Fresh Herbs (Thyme and Rosemary)
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and half of the fresh herbs.
Heat half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
In a bowl, toss the asparagus with the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
Arrange the seared chicken and asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle lemon juice over the chicken.
Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
While the chicken and asparagus are roasting, heat the cooked quinoa if needed, and stir in any additional herbs for flavor.
Plate the chicken alongside a serving of quinoa and roasted asparagus. Garnish with extra fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
