Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus for a bright and satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
0.25 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and toss with 0.5 tbsp olive oil, sea salt, and pepper on the baking sheet.
Season the chicken breast evenly with dried oregano, lemon zest, and the remaining salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While chicken cooks, roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Remove chicken from the pan, add minced garlic and lemon juice to the hot skillet to create a quick pan sauce, then serve over the warm quinoa.
