    This might be a good start. Please note a li should always be inside an ul.

    ul {
  list-style: none;
}
li {
  padding: 0.5em;
  background: black;
}
li:hover {
  background: blue;
}
li > a {
  display: flex;
  color: white;
  text-decoration: none;
}
li > a > span {
  min-width: 30px;
}

    If you want to vertically align icons and text on their line, you can use flexbox in your CSS stylesheet: 

    li li > a {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
