Lemon Herb Chicken with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with bright lemon and oregano, served alongside crisp-tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a zesty and satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
1 cup asparagus
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the asparagus with 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of the sea salt and black pepper on the prepared sheet.
Roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with the dried oregano and the remaining sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden.
Reduce the heat to low, add the minced garlic, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute to glaze the chicken.
Serve the lemon-herb chicken alongside the roasted asparagus and the warm cooked quinoa.
