Crispy Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken and Rice
Crispy oven-roasted chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served over a bed of fluffy rice and tender charred asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked brown rice
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Fresh asparagus spears
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the chicken breast completely dry with a paper towel to ensure the skin or surface gets perfectly crispy during roasting.
In a small glass bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Brush the lemon-herb mixture generously over both sides of the chicken and toss the asparagus to coat evenly.
Roast in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender and slightly charred.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips against the grain.
Fluff the warm cooked brown rice and plate it as a base, topping it with the sliced chicken and roasted asparagus.
