Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Quinoa
Oven-roasted chicken breast infused with fragrant lemon and herbs, paired with fluffy quinoa and snappy asparagus for a vibrant, citrus-forward meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp fresh rosemary
0.5 tsp fresh thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mince the garlic, rosemary, and thyme finely to release their aromatic oils.
Rub the chicken breast with half of the olive oil, the lemon zest, minced garlic, herbs, sea salt, and black pepper.
Arrange the chicken and trimmed asparagus on the prepared baking sheet, drizzling the asparagus with the remaining olive oil.
Roast for 18 to 22 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender.
While the chicken rests, fluff the warm cooked quinoa in a small bowl and toss it with the fresh lemon juice.
Slice the roasted chicken breast against the grain and serve it atop the quinoa with the asparagus on the side.
