Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, nourishing meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
0.75 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss with 0.25 tablespoons of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper.
Spread the asparagus on the baking sheet and roast for 12 to 15 minutes until tender.
Season the chicken breast evenly with dried oregano, lemon zest, and the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook the chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Reduce the heat to low, add the minced garlic and lemon juice to the pan, and spoon the pan juices over the chicken for 1 minute.
Serve the chicken and roasted asparagus over a bed of warm cooked quinoa.
