Golden Lemon-Herb Chicken and Spinach Bake
Tender chicken breasts roasted with vibrant turmeric and aromatic herbs, nestled on a bed of wilted spinach and hearty chickpeas for a zesty, golden-hued finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup chickpeas
2 cups fresh spinach
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp ground turmeric
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a medium-sized baking dish.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, ground turmeric, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Place the chicken breasts, rinsed chickpeas, and fresh spinach into the baking dish.
Drizzle the golden lemon-herb marinade over the ingredients and toss thoroughly to ensure the chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
Arrange the chicken on top of the spinach and chickpeas, then bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the spinach has wilted into a flavorful base.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to keep the meat juicy.
