Enjoy a light yet satisfying meal featuring crispy, lemon-herb marinated chicken paired with tender roasted asparagus and a side of fluffy quinoa. This dish balances tangy citrus with aromatic herbs, providing a delightful mix of textures and flavors perfect for a nutritious dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus Spears
2 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
0.33 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil (reserve 1 tsp for asparagus), lemon juice, minced garlic, and finely chopped rosemary and thyme.
Place the chicken breast on a plate, and rub the herb-lemon mixture evenly over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, trim the tough ends off the asparagus and toss them with the reserved olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until the exterior is crispy and golden.
Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven along with the asparagus. Roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
While waiting, warm the cooked quinoa if desired.
Plate the crispy lemon herb chicken alongside the roasted asparagus, and serve with a side of quinoa.
