Lemon Pepper Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and cracked black pepper, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
1.5 cups asparagus spears
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp cracked black pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.5 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss with half of the olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with garlic powder, lemon zest, sea salt, and cracked black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
While chicken cooks, roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Plate the chicken and roasted asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the entire dish before serving.
