INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
150g Fresh Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 whole Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the juice and zest of the lemon, minced garlic, and mixed fresh herbs. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring all sides are coated.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking sheet. Arrange the asparagus around the chicken and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, tossing gently to coat.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy.
For extra crispiness, switch to broil for the last 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
