INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
1 tbsp Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place the chicken breast on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Pat dry with paper towels.
Drizzle half of the olive oil over the chicken. Season with salt, pepper, fresh thyme, and rosemary. Add lemon zest from the lemon.
Cut the asparagus spears to remove tough ends, then toss them in the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper on a separate baking tray.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over both the chicken and asparagus for a bright, tangy flavor.
Roast the chicken and asparagus in the oven. The chicken should take about 20-25 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, while the asparagus roasts for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Remove from oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve alongside the roasted asparagus. Enjoy your delicious and balanced meal!
