Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Oven-roasted chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and herbs, served alongside crisp asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying midday meal.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with half of the olive oil and half of the lemon juice.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and arrange the spears around the chicken in a single layer.
Drizzle the asparagus with the remaining olive oil and a small pinch of additional salt and pepper if desired.
Roast in the oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Serve the roasted chicken and asparagus over a bed of warm cooked quinoa, finishing the dish with fresh lemon zest and the remaining lemon juice.
