Savor the bright flavors of lemon and garlic paired with tender, pan-seared chicken and perfectly roasted asparagus. This dish delivers a balanced, satisfying meal with a zesty kick and a crispy finish, ideal for a healthy dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
2 tsp Olive Oil
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
In the last minute of cooking the chicken, add the minced garlic to the pan, allowing it to infuse the chicken with its aroma. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the chicken during the final minute.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and drizzle any pan juices over the top. Serve immediately.
