INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
8 Asparagus Spears
1/2 Lemon
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the juice from half a lemon, minced garlic, and 1 tsp olive oil.
Marinate the chicken in the lemon garlic mixture for at least 10 minutes.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus spears with the remaining 1 tsp olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Warm the cooked quinoa if needed, or serve at room temperature as a base on the plate.
Plate the quinoa, top with the pan-seared chicken, and arrange the roasted asparagus alongside.
Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chicken and garnish with a final squeeze of lemon if desired.
