Gluten Free Low Carb Paleo Whole30

Lemony Chicken & Asparagus Sheet Pan

This Lemony Chicken and Asparagus Sheet Pan is a super fast and easy low carb weeknight dinner for two. My husband and I have this on days when we are super hungry and want something fast and healthy, oh and did I say delicious?

For this recipe, you will cook the chicken first for 10 minutes and then add the asparagus during the last 10 minutes of the cooking. It seriously couldn’t be any easier. If you have extra time, I would recommend marinating the chicken in the marinade for at least 30 minutes to an hour before cooking. Hope you give it a try!
