Crispy Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus and Quinoa
Savor a delightful balance of crispy, lemon-herb marinated chicken paired with tender, roasted asparagus and a serving of fluffy quinoa. This dish features bright, zesty flavors and a satisfying crunch that makes it perfect for a nourishing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 medium Lemon
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of one lemon, olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and coat it evenly with the lemon herb marinade. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, trim the asparagus and toss with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Place the chicken on a separate lightly oiled baking pan and then add the asparagus to the oven. Roast for about 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and asparagus is tender and slightly crispy.
Prepare the cooked quinoa if not pre-cooked, following package instructions.
To serve, slice the chicken breast, and plate it alongside a serving of quinoa with the roasted asparagus on the side. Squeeze additional lemon over the top for extra brightness if desired.
