PREPARATION

1
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
2
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 7 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
4
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest; add the asparagus to the same pan and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until tender-crisp.
5
Lower the heat to medium and add the ghee and minced garlic to the pan, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6
Whisk in the lemon juice to create a light sauce, then remove the pan from the heat.
7
Slice the chicken and serve it over a bed of warm quinoa and sautéed asparagus, drizzling the lemon sauce over the top and garnishing with fresh parsley.
