Pan-Seared Chicken Thighs with Roasted Asparagus
Juicy chicken thighs pan-seared until golden brown, paired with crisp-tender roasted asparagus and finished with a bright, zesty squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 whole lemon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place the spears on the baking sheet.
Drizzle the asparagus with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil and season with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 12-15 minutes until it is tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, season the chicken thighs on both sides with the remaining salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken thighs in the hot skillet and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
In the final minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the pan and toss with the chicken until fragrant.
Plate the chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice over everything.
