Crispy Lemon Herb Baked Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a light yet flavorful dish featuring tender, oven-baked chicken coated in a crispy whole wheat breadcrumb crust infused with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served alongside perfectly roasted asparagus for a balanced, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast, Boneless Skinless
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Thyme and Rosemary)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the chicken breast on a cutting board and lightly pound to even thickness.
In a shallow dish, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the mixed fresh herbs.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg white and fresh lemon juice.
Dip the chicken breast first into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge in the breadcrumb-herb mix until evenly covered.
Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
On a separate baking tray, toss the asparagus with the teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Bake the chicken and asparagus in the preheated oven. Roast the asparagus for about 12-15 minutes until tender, and bake the chicken for 18-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the crust is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving alongside the roasted asparagus.
