Lemon Garlic Pan Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Savor a bright and zesty dish featuring a perfectly pan-seared chicken breast infused with lemon and garlic, paired with tender roasted asparagus. This dish is light yet satisfying, balancing robust flavors and a delightful aroma for a wholesome meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Trim the asparagus ends and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, pound the chicken breast to ensure even cooking. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and the minced garlic.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into the pan for a burst of citrus flavor.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
Once the asparagus is roasted and the chicken is seared, serve together on a plate. Drizzle extra lemon juice over the chicken for added zest if desired.
