Citrus-Garlic Chicken Breast with Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy a bright and flavorful lunch featuring tender chicken breast marinated in a zesty citrus-garlic blend and paired with perfectly roasted broccoli. The vibrant notes of lemon and orange elevate the lean, juicy chicken, while a drizzle of olive oil adds richness without overpowering the natural freshness of the broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
4 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Orange Zest
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, orange zest, minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken breast in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While the chicken is marinating, prepare the broccoli by tossing it with the remaining 3 teaspoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for about 15-18 minutes or until tender and slightly charred on the edges.
While the broccoli roasts, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated chicken breast for 2-3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms, then transfer it to the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once both the chicken and broccoli are cooked, plate them together and enjoy the harmonious blend of citrus, garlic, and roasted flavors.
