INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
8 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, minced garlic, and olive oil.
Marinate the chicken in the lemon garlic mixture for at least 15 minutes, letting the flavors infuse.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 425°F. Place the asparagus spears on a baking sheet, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy at the tips.
Plate the chicken breast with a side of roasted asparagus and drizzle any remaining pan juices or extra lemon garlic mixture over the top if desired.
