INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 cup Asparagus
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F to roast the asparagus.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, finely minced garlic, and gently bruise the rosemary and thyme sprigs to release their aroma.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the lemon-herb mixture over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, trim the tough ends of the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with any remaining lemon-herb mixture and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, cook the brown rice according to package instructions to yield a fluffy texture.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden on the outside.
Plate the chicken breast alongside a serving of brown rice and roasted asparagus.
Garnish with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon juice if desired and serve warm.
