INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add half of the olive oil.
Mince the garlic and zest the lemon, then set aside.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breast and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden and fully cooked.
While the chicken cooks, preheat your oven to 425°F to roast the asparagus.
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and place in a bowl. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender.
After searing, remove the chicken from the pan and add the minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant, then squeeze in the lemon juice and sprinkle with lemon zest.
Drizzle the lemon garlic mixture over the chicken, slice if desired, and serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
