INGREDIENTS
8 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1.5 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by patting the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and lightly seasoning both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small dish, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, and rosemary.
Place the chicken in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it marinate at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Meanwhile, trim the tough ends off the asparagus and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the marinated chicken breast in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Allow the chicken to rest for a couple of minutes after searing, then slice and serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
Enjoy this balanced meal that's rich in protein, vibrant flavors, and perfect for any time of day.
