INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Mince the garlic and zest half a lemon, then squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the asparagus with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil (or use the residual oil from the skillet) on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Once the chicken is cooked, pour the lemon garlic mixture over it in the skillet, letting the flavors meld for an additional minute.
Plate the chicken with a side of roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
