INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Lemon (juice)
2 Tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs
1 Garlic clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt, the juice of one lemon, 2 tablespoons of finely chopped mixed fresh herbs, one minced garlic clove, salt and pepper to taste.
Place the chicken breast in the bowl and thoroughly coat it with the yogurt mixture. Allow it to marinate for at least 15-20 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the asparagus by trimming the woody ends. Toss the asparagus with 1 teaspoon olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Arrange the asparagus on a baking tray and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
For the chicken, you can either bake it alongside the asparagus or cook it separately in a preheated skillet over medium heat. If baking, place the marinated chicken on a lined baking dish and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes until fully cooked.
Check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Plate the sliced chicken with roasted asparagus on the side, and drizzle any remaining herb-yogurt sauce over the top for extra flavor.
