INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.5 cup mashed potatoes

1 cup asparagus spears

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried rosemary

0.5 tsp dried thyme

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

• 2

  Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

• 4

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms, then flip the breast over.

• 5

  Arrange the asparagus spears around the chicken in the skillet, tossing them slightly in the remaining oil.

• 6

  Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 7

  While the chicken rests for a few minutes, gently reheat your pre-cooked mashed potatoes in a small saucepan or the microwave until hot.

• 8

  Plate the chicken and asparagus over the warm mashed potatoes and finish with a bright squeeze of lemon juice.
