INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
0.5 tsp Dried Thyme
0.5 tsp Dried Oregano
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, dried thyme, dried oregano, a pinch of salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pat the chicken breast dry and brush both sides with the marinade. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add half the olive oil. Sear the chicken breast for about 3 minutes on each side until the exterior is golden and crispy.
Place the seared chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Toss the asparagus with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange them around the chicken.
Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender.
Plate the chicken and asparagus, and garnish with a bit more lemon zest or fresh herbs if desired.
