Enjoy a perfectly balanced meal featuring crispy, golden roasted chicken thighs infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, paired with tender roasted asparagus. A satisfying dish that delivers robust flavor while balancing lean protein and fresh vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
2 pieces Chicken Thighs, skin-on (~200 grams total)
1 cup Fresh Asparagus (~134 grams)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (zest & juice)
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, juice and zest of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Rub the chicken thighs thoroughly with the lemon herb mixture, ensuring the skin is well coated.
Place the chicken thighs on a baking sheet, skin side up. On the same sheet, arrange the asparagus spears, drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil over them, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the skin is crispy, and the asparagus is tender with a slight char.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Plate the chicken thighs with a generous serving of roasted asparagus and enjoy your meal.
