INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
6 Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Thyme, Rosemary)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season it on both sides with salt, pepper, and half of the mixed fresh herbs.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Sear the chicken breast for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
While the chicken is searing, arrange the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and the remaining fresh herbs.
Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender.
After searing, transfer the chicken breast to the oven (or lower the heat and cover the pan) and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice with a pinch of salt and drizzle this mixture over the chicken just before serving.
Warm the pre-cooked quinoa if needed, then plate the quinoa alongside the crispy lemon herb chicken and roasted asparagus.
Garnish with an extra sprinkle of herbs and serve immediately.
