Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served alongside tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Boneless skinless chicken breast
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and ensure your quinoa is cooked and fluffy.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears on a baking sheet with half of the olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast evenly with dried oregano, garlic powder, lemon zest, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6 to 8 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice into the skillet during the last minute of cooking to glaze the chicken.
Serve the pan-seared chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and the fluffy quinoa.
