Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and fresh thyme, served alongside crisp roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken breast
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.25 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Fresh thyme leaves
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the asparagus spears with 0.5 tbsp of olive oil, 0.125 tsp sea salt, and 0.125 tsp black pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast with the remaining salt, pepper, and fresh thyme.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the pan, spooning the sauce over the chicken.
Plate the chicken with the roasted asparagus and cooked quinoa, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top.
