Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Roasted chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus for a bright and refreshing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 cups asparagus
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 whole lemon
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp dried rosemary
0.5 tsp dried thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the chicken breast completely dry with a paper towel to ensure the herbs stick and the meat roasts perfectly.
Mince the garlic cloves and combine them in a small bowl with the olive oil, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears onto the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the herb and garlic oil mixture generously over the chicken and toss the asparagus to ensure every spear is lightly coated.
Thinly slice the lemon half and layer the rounds over the chicken and asparagus to infuse them with citrus notes.
Roast in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the asparagus is vibrant.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
