Enjoy a bright, flavorful dish featuring succulent pan-seared chicken infused with lemon and capers, paired with tender roasted asparagus. This meal balances zesty citrus, savory capers, and the natural earthiness of asparagus for a delightful, nutrient-packed dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (14g)
1/2 Lemon (50g)
1 tbsp Capers (8g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the asparagus and season it lightly with a dash of salt, pepper, and half of the olive oil.
Place the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the chicken breast dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
In the last minute of cooking, add the capers and squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the chicken, allowing the flavors to meld.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus. Drizzle any pan juices over the chicken and garnish with extra lemon zest if desired.
