Preheat your oven to 400°F and trim the woody ends from the asparagus spears.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and minced garlic.
Heat 0.5 teaspoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
On a baking sheet, toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a small pinch of salt.
Place both the skillet with the chicken and the baking sheet with the asparagus into the oven to roast for 10 to 12 minutes.
Warm the cooked brown rice and serve it alongside the chicken and asparagus, finishing the dish with a bright drizzle of fresh lemon juice and rosemary.
