Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken and Asparagus
Oven-roasted chicken breast marinated in a zesty lemon-garlic sauce and served alongside crisp-tender asparagus for a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.5 cups asparagus
1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breasts on one side of the prepared baking sheet and the trimmed asparagus spears on the other side.
Drizzle the lemon-herb marinade evenly over both the chicken and the asparagus, using a brush or your hands to ensure every piece is well-coated.
Roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy, then serve alongside the roasted asparagus.
