INGREDIENTS
150g Chicken Breast
100g Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
2 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for the asparagus.
In a small bowl, mix the juice of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, chopped mixed herbs, salt, and pepper. Reserve half of the mixture for the chicken marinade and use the other half to toss the asparagus.
Marinate the chicken breast in the reserved lemon herb mixture for at least 15 minutes.
Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and the herb mixture, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and lightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Prepare quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked, ensuring it's light and fluffy.
Plate the seared chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Squeeze a little extra lemon over the top if desired, and serve warm.
