PREPARATION

• 1

  Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 2

  Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

  While the chicken cooks, trim the tough woody ends off the asparagus and finely mince the garlic clove.

  Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate to rest.

• 6

  Add the asparagus to the same skillet and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes over medium heat until vibrant green and crisp-tender.
