Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Oven-roasted chicken breast and snap-crisp asparagus spears seasoned with aromatic herbs and bright lemon zest for a refreshing, protein-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Lemon zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Place the seasoned chicken on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10 minutes.
While the chicken starts roasting, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with half of the olive oil and the lemon zest.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven, arrange the asparagus in a single layer around the chicken, and return to the oven for another 10 to 12 minutes.
Check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender yet vibrant.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil and fresh lemon juice over the chicken and asparagus before serving alongside the warm cooked quinoa.
