Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken with Asparagus
Tender chicken breast roasted with a bright lemon-herb marinade, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, nourishing meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus spears
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast and the trimmed asparagus spears onto the prepared sheet pan.
Drizzle the lemon-herb marinade over the chicken and asparagus, using your hands or a brush to ensure the chicken is fully coated and the asparagus is tossed evenly.
Roast in the center of the oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender and slightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve the sliced chicken and roasted asparagus over the warm cooked quinoa, drizzling any remaining juices from the pan over the top.
