Zesty Orange Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Experience a burst of citrus and spice with this tender chicken breast, marinated in fresh orange juice, garlic, and ginger. Paired with perfectly roasted asparagus for a balanced, vibrant dish that awakens your taste buds.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
8 spears Asparagus
1 medium Orange
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
½ tsp Fresh Ginger
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Zest the orange and then juice it into a bowl. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the orange marinade over it, ensuring it gets well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden.
Pour the remaining orange marinade into the skillet and let it simmer with the chicken for an additional 3-4 minutes to create a light glaze.
Serve the sliced chicken breast over a bed of roasted asparagus, drizzled with any remaining pan sauce, and garnish with the fresh orange zest for an extra burst of flavor.
