Herb-Marinated Chicken Pasta with Fresh Vegetables
Enjoy a vibrant, healthful meal featuring succulent herb-marinated chicken tossed with al dente whole wheat pasta and a colorful medley of fresh vegetables. The dish is brightened with a squeeze of lemon and accented with aromatic garlic and herbs to create a balanced, satisfying plate.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Mixed Vegetables
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley, Basil)
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the herb marinade: In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped fresh herbs.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and coat evenly with the herb marinade. Allow it to marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 1 hour for enhanced flavor.
While the chicken marinates, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the marinated chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Once cooked, remove from the heat and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the mixed vegetables and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Combine the cooked pasta, sautéed vegetables, and chicken strips in a large bowl. Toss gently to mix all ingredients well, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors of this balanced, nutrient-packed dish.
