Pan-Seared Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with aromatic oregano and garlic, served with crisp-tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, nourishing meal.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken breast
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
0.5 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Dried oregano
1 tbsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) 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, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Place the asparagus spears on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with 0.5 tbsp of the olive oil, and toss to coat thoroughly.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
Carefully place the chicken in the skillet and sear for approximately 6 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms and the center is no longer pink.
While the chicken is searing, roast the asparagus in the oven for 12 minutes until the tips are slightly crispy and the stalks are tender.
Divide the warm quinoa between plates, top with the chicken and asparagus, and drizzle everything with fresh lemon juice for a bright finish.
