Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus for a bright and satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 whole lemon
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat half of the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms.
On the prepared baking sheet, toss the trimmed asparagus with the remaining olive oil and minced garlic until well coated.
Place the seared chicken breast on the baking sheet nestled with the asparagus and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top.
Roast in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is crisp-tender.
Serve the lemon herb chicken and roasted asparagus over a bed of warm cooked quinoa to soak up all the bright juices.
