Lemon Pepper Grilled Chicken with Asparagus
Tender chicken breast grilled with zesty lemon and cracked black pepper, served alongside charred asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
0.25 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, sea salt, and cracked black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it, ensuring it is well coated; let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Toss the trimmed asparagus spears with the remaining marinade in a separate bowl.
Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
During the last 5 minutes of chicken cooking, add the asparagus to the grill and cook until tender-crisp with light char marks.
Serve the grilled chicken and asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa.
