Crispy Lemon-Herb Chicken with Roasted Chickpeas
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs served alongside crispy oven-roasted chickpeas and wilted kale for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Chickpeas
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Fresh rosemary
2 cups Fresh kale
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the chickpeas completely dry with a paper towel to ensure maximum crispiness before tossing them with half the olive oil, oregano, and garlic powder.
Spread the chickpeas in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes until they are golden and crunchy.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh rosemary.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until the exterior is beautifully browned.
Remove the chicken to rest, then deglaze the hot pan with lemon juice and toss in the chopped kale, sautéing for 2 minutes until just tender.
Plate the chicken over the bed of wilted kale and finish by scattering the warm, crispy chickpeas over the top.
