INGREDIENTS
2 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (170g total)
1 bunch fresh asparagus (approx 8 spears, 134g)
0.5 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, garlic powder, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness. Rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken thighs. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
While the chicken is searing, trim the woody ends of the asparagus and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Place the seared chicken thighs on the baking sheet with the asparagus and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy lemon-herb chicken thighs with roasted asparagus!
