Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Oven-roasted chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fragrant herbs, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and a fluffy sweet potato for a vibrant, nourishing meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
1 medium sweet potato
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Scrub the sweet potato thoroughly, pierce it several times with a fork, and place it on the baking sheet to roast for 15 minutes.
While the potato starts, pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and rub with half of the olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and toss them in a small bowl with the remaining olive oil and fresh lemon zest.
Move the sweet potato to one side of the pan and place the seasoned chicken breast in the center, then roast for 10 minutes.
Add the asparagus to the remaining space on the sheet pan and continue roasting for another 12 to 15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the pan from the oven, drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables, and let the meat rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
