Lemon Herb Pan-Seared Chicken with Asparagus
Tender chicken breast pan-seared until golden and juicy, served with crisp-tender asparagus and a bright, zesty lemon-herb pan sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 tbsp ghee
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp lemon zest
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the ghee and minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the trimmed asparagus spears and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are bright green and crisp-tender.
Deglaze the pan with lemon juice and lemon zest, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
Return the chicken to the pan briefly to coat in the lemon-garlic sauce before serving alongside the asparagus.
