Crispy Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken Breast
Tender chicken breast roasted with a vibrant lemon-herb rub until golden and crispy, served alongside snap-crisp asparagus and finished with a bright squeeze of citrus.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz chicken breast
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp fresh rosemary
1 tsp fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mince the garlic cloves, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme, then combine them in a small bowl with the lemon zest and half of the olive oil.
Pat the chicken breast completely dry with paper towels to ensure the skin gets crispy during roasting.
Rub the herb and oil mixture all over the chicken breast, then season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with the remaining olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and arrange the asparagus in a single layer around it.
Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the chicken and asparagus immediately after removing from the oven, then let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving.
