INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1/2 whole Lemon
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Rosemary, Thyme)
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, juice from the half lemon, chopped fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on the baking sheet and brush it generously with the lemon-herb mixture.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, turning once halfway for even crisping.
While the chicken is roasting, prepare the asparagus by tossing it in a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a separate baking tray.
Roast asparagus in the oven for roughly 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. Fluff with a fork to keep it light.
Slice the roasted chicken and serve alongside the roasted asparagus and a portion of quinoa. Enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
