INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
5 spears Asparagus (90g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and mixed dried herbs. Drizzle with lemon juice.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a crispy crust.
Transfer the chicken to an ovenproof dish and finish cooking in the oven for 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends of the asparagus. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Heat the cooked quinoa gently if needed. Serve the chicken sliced over a bed of quinoa and arrange the roasted asparagus on the side.
Finish with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon juice for added brightness before serving.
