Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast on one side of the baking sheet and the asparagus on the other side.
Brush the herb and lemon mixture evenly over both the chicken and the asparagus spears.
Roast in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
Serve the sliced chicken immediately alongside the roasted asparagus.
