Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Rice
Tender chicken breast roasted with a zesty lemon-herb rub, served alongside nutty brown rice and crisp-tender asparagus spears.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup cooked brown rice
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast on one side of the prepared baking sheet and arrange the asparagus spears on the other side.
Brush the lemon-herb marinade generously over the chicken breast and drizzle any remaining mixture over the asparagus spears, tossing to coat evenly.
Roast in the center of the oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken breast reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus spears are tender.
While the chicken rests for a few minutes, warm the cooked brown rice in a small saucepan or microwave.
Slice the chicken breast into strips and serve over the warm cooked brown rice alongside the roasted asparagus spears.
