Lemon Garlic Pan-Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus and Quinoa
Savor a zesty, beautifully seared chicken breast infused with garlic and lemon, paired with tender roasted asparagus and a side of fluffy quinoa. A delightful dish that brings warmth, brightness, and a balanced nutritional profile to your plate.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1/2 cup Quinoa (cooked)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the chicken breast. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. On a baking sheet, toss the asparagus with half of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add the remaining olive oil.
Mince the garlic and add it to the pan along with the chicken breast. Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Just before finishing, drizzle the lemon juice over the chicken and allow it to absorb the flavors for a minute.
Plate the chicken with a side of roasted asparagus and the cooked quinoa. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chicken for added flavor.
