Description

A high-protein meal featuring grilled chicken with roasted baby potatoes, asparagus, and soft-boiled eggs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon butter, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Place the halved baby potatoes on a baking sheet. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, dried parsley, and Italian seasoning.

  3. Roast the potatoes for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
  4. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then season both sides with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
    5. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Cook the chicken for 5–7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  6. Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  7. While the chicken cooks, bring a pot of water to a gentle boil. Add the eggs and cook for 7–8 minutes for soft-boiled eggs with jammy yolks.
  8. Transfer the premises to a bowl of ice water, cool for 2 minutes, then peel and slice in half.
  9. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and cook for 5–6 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  10. Add lemon juice and butter to the asparagus if desired, then season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  11. Arrange sliced grilled chicken, roasted baby potatoes, asparagus, and soft-boiled eggs on plates. Sprinkle extra black pepper over the eggs and serve warm.

Notes

  • Let the chicken rest before slicing to retain juices.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for best flavor.
