Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken
Tender chicken breast roasted with a vibrant lemon-herb rub, served alongside crisp asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 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 line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
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 to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the lemon-herb marinade generously over both sides of the chicken breast and drizzle the remaining mixture over the asparagus, tossing the spears to ensure they are evenly coated.
Roast in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender and slightly charred.
While the chicken rests for 5 minutes, warm your pre-cooked quinoa.
Slice the chicken into strips and serve immediately over the bed of fluffy quinoa alongside the roasted asparagus.
