INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus (approx. 134g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Rinse the chicken breast and pat it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Add the chicken breast to the hot skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add minced garlic to the pan and stir around the chicken for about 1 minute to infuse flavor.
Squeeze lemon juice over the chicken, allowing the flavors to meld, and let it simmer for an additional minute.
In the meantime, toss the asparagus with a small drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Plate the chicken with a side of roasted asparagus, and drizzle any remaining pan sauce over the chicken. Serve warm.
