Lemon Garlic Pan-Seared Chicken Breast with Roasted Asparagus
Savor the zing of fresh lemon and aromatic garlic paired with perfectly seared chicken breast, complemented by roasted asparagus that offers a tender crunch in every bite. A delightful dish that balances bright citrus notes, savory spices, and a light roasted finish.
INGREDIENTS
1 piece (6 oz) Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus (approx. 134g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 medium Lemon
Pinch of Salt
Dash of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Mince the garlic and zest the half lemon. Then, squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken along with the garlic and lemon zest.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil.
Place the seasoned chicken breast in the skillet and pan-sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the asparagus with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a splash of olive oil if desired.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Once the chicken is cooked and rested for a couple of minutes, slice it and serve alongside the roasted asparagus. Enjoy the burst of lemon garlic flavor combined with tender chicken and crisp asparagus.
