INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
227 g Asparagus
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon
2 Garlic Cloves
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for the roasted asparagus.
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of one lemon, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and pepper with one teaspoon of olive oil.
Pat the chicken breast dry and rub half of the lemon garlic mixture over both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil.
Sear the chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms.
Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish if necessary, finish cooking in the skillet or oven until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), about 5-8 minutes.
Meanwhile, trim the tough ends of the asparagus, toss them with the remaining lemon juice mixture, and spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Serve the pan-seared chicken alongside the roasted asparagus for a balanced, zesty meal.
