Crispy Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Tender Asparagus
Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring crispy, lemon-herb roasted chicken paired with tender asparagus spears. The bright citrus and fresh herbs elevate the savory roasted chicken, while lightly drizzled olive oil and a hint of garlic bring out the natural earthiness of the asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (skin-on)
8 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for chicken)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for asparagus)
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Fresh Thyme, chopped
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary, chopped
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped thyme, and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare the asparagus by trimming the woody ends. Place them on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tsp olive oil; season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Arrange the marinated chicken breast on another baking sheet. Optionally, pour any remaining marinade over the chicken to enhance the flavor.
Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven. Roast the chicken for about 20-25 minutes until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Roast the asparagus for about 10-12 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced chicken alongside the roasted asparagus.
