Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Rice
Oven-roasted chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served over fluffy jasmine rice with crisp-tender asparagus for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.75 cup Cooked jasmine rice
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp Lemon zest
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 cup Asparagus spears
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast on one side of the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides with half of the lemon-herb marinade.
Roast the chicken in the oven for 10 minutes.
While the chicken is roasting, trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and toss them in the remaining marinade.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven, place the asparagus on the other side of the tray, and return to the oven for another 10-12 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is crisp-tender.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Serve the sliced chicken and roasted asparagus over the warm jasmine rice, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley for a final burst of flavor.
