INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
0.5 medium Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the chicken breast. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat half a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, trim the asparagus by snapping off the woody ends. Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Place the asparagus on a baking tray, drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Mince the garlic and zest half a lemon. During the last minute of cooking the chicken, add the garlic to the pan and let it become fragrant.
Once the chicken is cooked through, remove from heat and drizzle with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle the lemon zest over the top.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
