INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
8 spears Fresh Asparagus
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 lemon wedge
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Thyme, Rosemary)
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry and place it on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze the lemon wedge over the chicken, and sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs, salt, and black pepper.
Trim the woody ends from the asparagus and arrange them around the chicken on the sheet pan. Toss the asparagus lightly with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is crispy-tender.
While the chicken and asparagus roast, prepare the cooked quinoa if not already prepared.
Once done, plate the roasted chicken and asparagus alongside the quinoa, and garnish with a bit more fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your balanced and nourishing meal.
