Golden Pan-Seared Chicken with Zesty Lemon
Golden pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and garlic, served alongside tender steamed asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken breast
1 tbsp Olive oil
0.5 cup Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the center is cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and lemon zest to the pan during the final 2 minutes of cooking, tossing to coat the chicken in the aromatics.
Steam the asparagus spears until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Fluff the cooked quinoa and portion it onto a plate alongside the steamed asparagus.
Slice the chicken breast and place it over the quinoa, drizzling with fresh lemon juice and any remaining pan juices.
Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
