INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus ends and place them on the baking sheet. Drizzle with one teaspoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to evenly coat.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a skillet, heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
In the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir, allowing the garlic to infuse the chicken with its flavor.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and drizzle with lemon juice.
Plate the chicken with the roasted asparagus on the side, and serve immediately.
