PREPARATION

1
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
2
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
4
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a plate; in the same skillet, add the minced garlic and asparagus spears.
5
Sauté the asparagus for 3 to 4 minutes until crisp-tender and vibrant green, then squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the vegetables.
6
Fluff the pre-cooked quinoa and plate it alongside the chicken and asparagus, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top.
