INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for the asparagus.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with half the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for approximately 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and properly cooked through.
During the last minute of cooking, drizzle the chicken with lemon juice to infuse a bright, citrusy flavor.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Plate the chicken breast with roasted asparagus on the side and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
