PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 3

  Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

  While the asparagus roasts, season the chicken breast on both sides with the remaining sea salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

  During the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the minced garlic and the juice from the lemon to the pan, spooning the pan juices over the chicken to glaze it.
