Pan-Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with aromatic herbs served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus and a squeeze of bright lemon for a refreshing finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil, 0.25 tsp salt, and 0.125 tsp pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until the tips are slightly charred and tender.
Season the chicken breast evenly with dried oregano and the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Add the minced garlic to the pan during the final minute of cooking, tossing it with the chicken for a fragrant aroma.
Plate the chicken and roasted asparagus over a bed of warm quinoa and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
