Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Tender chicken breast roasted with zesty lemon and aromatic oregano, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the lemon-herb marinade over the chicken and asparagus, using your hands or a brush to ensure the chicken is fully coated and the asparagus is tossed well.
Roast in the oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is vibrant and tender.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve the roasted chicken and asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa, drizzling any remaining juices from the pan over the top.
