INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
8 spears Asparagus
1.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, chopped thyme and rosemary, and salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on a lined baking sheet. Brush the chicken evenly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and then rub the herb mixture over it, ensuring it’s well coated.
Toss the asparagus spears with the remaining 0.5 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then arrange them around the chicken on the baking sheet.
Roast in the oven for about 18-22 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the asparagus are tender yet crispy.
For extra crispiness, place the baking sheet under the broiler for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your balanced and flavorful meal!
