INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat dry the chicken breast with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and let it sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
Add lemon juice to the garlic, stir for a few seconds, then return the chicken to the skillet, spooning some of the garlic-lemon sauce over the top.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus. Drizzle any remaining sauce over the chicken and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
