Lemon Herb Baked Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Savor the vibrant flavors of lemon and fresh herbs on tender baked chicken, paired with crisp roasted asparagus and a hint of quinoa for a balanced, nutritious meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme), chopped
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, chopped fresh herbs, and half of the olive oil. Reserve a small drizzle for the asparagus later if preferred.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and coat evenly with the lemon herb mixture. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
Arrange the asparagus on a separate baking sheet. Lightly drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Place both the chicken and asparagus in the oven. Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
While the chicken and asparagus are baking, heat your cooked quinoa if desired or serve at room temperature.
Plate the baked chicken with a side of roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
