Pan-Seared Chicken with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared chicken breast finished with a bright and zesty lemon-herb reduction, served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 tbsp olive oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus spears
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and asparagus spears, sautéing for 3 to 4 minutes until the asparagus is vibrant and tender-crisp.
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, using a wooden spoon to scrape up the flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Simmer the sauce for 2 minutes until slightly reduced, then stir in the fresh parsley.
Serve the chicken and asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa, drizzling the remaining lemon-herb sauce over the top.
