Golden Pan-Seared Chicken with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared chicken breast finished with a vibrant lemon-garlic herb sauce and served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 tbsp avocado oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
1 tsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the avocado oil in a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the pan and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a plate; in the same skillet, add the minced garlic and asparagus spears.
Sauté the asparagus for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender, then deglaze the pan with lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits.
Stir in the fresh parsley and serve the chicken and asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa, drizzling any remaining pan sauce over the top.
