Crispy Pan-Seared Chicken Thighs with Roasted Asparagus
Savor a delicious, wholesome dish featuring a perfectly pan-seared, boneless skinless chicken thigh with a crispy exterior and tender, juicy interior, paired with lightly roasted asparagus drizzled with olive oil and seasoned to perfection. This meal is designed to balance robust flavor with clean eating principles.
INGREDIENTS
1 boneless skinless chicken thigh (150g)
1 cup asparagus (134g)
1 teaspoon olive oil
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for the asparagus.
Pat the chicken thigh dry with paper towels. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thigh, skin-side down if applicable, and sear for 4-5 minutes until a golden, crispy crust forms. Flip and sear the other side for another 4 minutes. (If using boneless, skinless, ensure the meat is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.)
Meanwhile, toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking tray.
Place the asparagus in the preheated oven and roast for 8-10 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Once the chicken thigh is cooked through and the asparagus is roasted, plate them together and serve immediately.
