INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup cooked Quinoa
0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the asparagus and heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Add the chicken breast to the preheated skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden and crispy. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, trim the woody ends off the asparagus. Toss the asparagus lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender yet slightly crisp.
Prepare quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked (typically simmer in water for 15 minutes until fluffy).
Plate the seared chicken breast alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa, and enjoy a balanced, nutritious meal.
