Pan-Seared Chicken with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared chicken breast drizzled with a bright, zesty lemon-herb reduction and served alongside tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
0.25 cup Chicken broth
1 tbsp Lemon juice
2 whole Garlic cloves
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest; in the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan with chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom, and simmer for 3 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly.
Steam or lightly sauté the asparagus in a separate pan with a splash of water for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Stir the fresh parsley into the lemon sauce, then plate the chicken over the fluffy quinoa with asparagus on the side, spooning the sauce generously over the top.
