INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (~142g)
1 cup Fresh Asparagus (~134g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/8 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (~15g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice & Zest
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides lightly with salt, pepper, and the dried herbs.
Drizzle lemon juice and zest over the chicken. Then, lightly press the whole wheat breadcrumbs onto the surface of the chicken to create a crispy coating.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Meanwhile, trim the tough ends off the asparagus and toss them with a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Transfer the chicken (in the skillet) and the asparagus to the oven. Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then serve the crispy lemon herb chicken alongside the roasted asparagus.
