INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
6 Asparagus Spears
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (zest and juice)
1 Garlic Clove
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, juice and zest from half a lemon, minced garlic, and finely chopped fresh thyme and rosemary.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle the lemon-herb mixture over it. Allow the flavors to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Toss the asparagus spears with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange them on a separate baking sheet.
Place both the chicken and asparagus in the oven. Roast the chicken for about 18-20 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, and roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the chicken and asparagus are roasting, reheat or prepare your cooked quinoa.
Plate the dish by serving the roasted chicken alongside a serving of quinoa, with the roasted asparagus on the side. Garnish with a little extra lemon zest if desired.
