INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Butternut Squash (diced)
1 cup Spinach
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Mixed Herbs (Thyme, Rosemary)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Peel and dice the butternut squash into 1-inch cubes. Toss the squash in 1 teaspoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the squash in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
While the squash roasts, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, a drizzle of lemon juice, and the mixed herbs.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Cook the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden.
In a separate pan, add a splash of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds. Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the roasted butternut squash, place the lemon-herb chicken breast on top, and serve alongside the sautéed spinach. Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
