Instructions

Step 1: Season 6 oz chicken thighs with 1/2 tsp sea salt and 1 tsp chopped rosemary. Heat 1/2 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until lightly smoking.
Step 2: Add chicken and sear for 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer skillet to a preheated 400°F oven and roast for 12 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F internally.
Step 3: While chicken roasts, toss 8 oz asparagus pieces with 1 tbsp coconut aminos, 1/2 tsp lemon zest, and 1 tsp lemon juice. Sauté in a separate pan over medium heat for 4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp, stirring until the asparagus edges are slightly charred.
