INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 cup Asparagus, trimmed
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice, minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons of nonfat Greek yogurt. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the lemon garlic mixture over the chicken. Let it simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken to keep it moist.
While the chicken is finishing, toss the asparagus with a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, and place on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
Plate the chicken breast and drizzle any remaining sauce from the skillet over it. Serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
