INGREDIENTS
1 piece Chicken Thigh (200g)
150g Fresh Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, mixed herbs, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken thigh dry with paper towels. Rub the lemon-herb mixture over the chicken, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Heat a non-stick, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thigh, skin-side down, and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin turns crispy and golden.
Flip the chicken thigh and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast for an additional 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken roasts, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes alongside the chicken, or until tender and slightly crispy.
Remove the chicken and asparagus from the oven. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Plate the chicken thigh with a side of roasted asparagus and enjoy!
