Zesty Roasted Asparagus and Lemon Chicken
Sheet-pan roasted chicken and asparagus tossed in a bright lemon-garlic glaze for a clean, protein-packed meal that is wonderfully succulent.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 cups asparagus
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.13 tsp red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Trim the tough, woody ends off the asparagus spears and cut the chicken breast into even 1-inch bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Add the chicken pieces and asparagus to the bowl, tossing thoroughly until every piece is well-coated in the lemon-garlic marinade.
Spread the mixture in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the chicken and asparagus aren't overcrowded so they roast rather than steam.
Roast for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is tender with slightly charred, crispy tips.
