INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (Boneless, Skinless)
1.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 bunch Fresh Asparagus (~100g)
1/2 Lemon
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the exterior is crispy and golden, internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat the oven to 425°F.
Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and arrange them on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining olive oil, juice from the 1/2 lemon, minced garlic from 2 cloves, and fresh thyme.
Drizzle the lemon-herb mixture over the asparagus, tossing to coat evenly. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender yet still crisp.
Plate the chicken breast alongside the roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
