INGREDIENTS

6 oz chicken breast

1 tbsp olive oil

1 cup asparagus

0.5 whole lemon

1 tsp dried rosemary

1 tsp dried thyme

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 clove garlic

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Pat the chicken breast completely dry with paper towels to ensure the skin becomes perfectly crispy during roasting.

• 3

  In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Brush the herb and oil mixture generously over both sides of the chicken breast until evenly coated.

• 5

  Place the seasoned chicken on the prepared baking sheet and arrange the asparagus spears in a single layer around it.

• 6

  Squeeze the juice from the lemon half over the chicken and asparagus, then place the spent lemon wedge on the tray for extra aroma.

• 7

  Roast in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 8

  Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
