Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Tender chicken breast pan-seared with aromatic herbs and bright lemon, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, nourishing lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
0.25 cup cooked quinoa
0.75 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
0.5 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 small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the trimmed asparagus with 0.25 tbsp of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then roast for 12-15 minutes until tender.
While asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast with dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic and lemon juice to the pan, spooning the juices over the chicken.
Serve the lemon-herb chicken with the roasted asparagus and the warm cooked quinoa.
