Lemon Garlic Pan-Seared Chicken with Fluffy Herb Quinoa and Roasted Asparagus
Savor a well-balanced plate featuring juicy pan-seared chicken infused with zesty lemon and garlic, paired with light, herb-infused quinoa and crisp roasted asparagus. Each bite delivers a refreshingly clean, bright flavor profile perfect for any meal from breakfast to dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa (130g)
10 Asparagus Spears (90g)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (14g)
Juice of 1/2 Lemon (15g)
2 Garlic Cloves (6g)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Heat half the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and let it infuse before adding the chicken.
Sear the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
Meanwhile, toss the asparagus spears with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast them in a preheated 425°F oven for 10-12 minutes until tender.
Fluff the pre-cooked quinoa with a fork and stir in fresh chopped parsley and a little lemon zest for brightness.
Assemble the plate by layering the herb quinoa, placing the pan-seared chicken on top, and serving the roasted asparagus on the side.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon over the chicken for added flavor.
