Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Crispy Roasted Asparagus
Savor the bright, zesty flavors of tender roasted chicken enhanced with a lemon-herb marinade, paired with perfectly crispy asparagus. This dish is light yet satisfying, offering a balance of protein and seasonal vegetables with a refreshing citrus note.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Fresh Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 whole Lemon (zested and juiced)
1 tbsp Fresh Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the juice and zest of one lemon, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the olive oil to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it, ensuring it’s well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, trim the tough ends of the asparagus and toss them with the remaining marinade.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and arrange the asparagus around it in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F) and the asparagus are tender and slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, and serve warm.
