INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by patting the chicken breast dry and lightly seasoning it with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, juice from the quarter lemon, and minced garlic to create a marinade.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with the marinade and let it sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
While marinating, preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare the asparagus by trimming the tough ends.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms.
Transfer the seared chicken to a baking sheet. Toss the asparagus with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange alongside the chicken.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender yet crisp.
Remove from the oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, and serve the dish garnished with any remaining lemon juice if desired.
