INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast (170g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tablespoon Olive Oil (13.5g)
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat the oven to 400°F.
Wash and trim the asparagus, toss with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Mince the garlic and zest the half lemon. Once the chicken is almost done, add the garlic into the skillet for the last minute of cooking to soften it slightly.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken, allowing the flavors to meld.
Plate the chicken with a side of roasted asparagus, and garnish with lemon zest if desired.
