INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for marinade)
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for asparagus)
1 cup Asparagus
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, minced garlic, and roughly chopped rosemary and thyme. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a dish and coat it evenly with the lemon herb marinade. Allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the chicken marinates, trim the asparagus and toss them in a bowl with 2 teaspoons olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the chicken breast on a baking sheet and spread the asparagus around it in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus are tender and starting to crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced chicken alongside the crispy roasted asparagus.
