INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (Optional)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Trim the asparagus ends and toss them in half of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Add minced garlic to the skillet during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to infuse the chicken with flavor.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken as it finishes cooking, ensuring a bright, zesty finish.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
