Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served over a bed of crisp roasted asparagus and buttery avocado slices.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
12 medium Asparagus spears
2 cups Baby spinach
0.25 whole Avocado
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Fresh rosemary
1 tsp Fresh thyme
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the spears with half of the olive oil and a pinch of the salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 12 to 15 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast on both sides with the lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, and the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet during the final minute of cooking, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Pour the fresh lemon juice into the pan to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits and spooning the sauce over the chicken.
Arrange the fresh baby spinach on a plate, top with the roasted asparagus and sliced avocado, and place the chicken on top.
