Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken Breast
Tender chicken breast roasted with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus for a vibrant, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breast on one side of the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides with half of the lemon-herb marinade.
Arrange the asparagus spears and cherry tomatoes on the other side of the baking sheet, then drizzle with the remaining marinade and toss gently to coat.
Roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain.
Serve the sliced chicken and roasted vegetables over the warm cooked quinoa, drizzling any remaining juices from the pan over the top.
