Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Rice
Tender chicken breast roasted with a zesty lemon-herb rub and served over fluffy brown rice alongside crisp-tender asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup brown rice (cooked)
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
5 medium asparagus spears
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears onto the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the lemon-herb mixture generously over both sides of the chicken breast and toss the asparagus to ensure even coating.
Roast in the center of the oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes to lock in the juices before slicing it into thin strips.
Arrange the sliced chicken and roasted asparagus over a bed of warm brown rice and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
