Herb-Crusted Chicken with Red Lentil Pasta Primavera
Enjoy a light yet satisfying meal featuring tender herb-crusted chicken paired with a vibrant red lentil pasta primavera. Bursting with fresh tomatoes, zucchini, and spinach, this dish is lightly dressed in olive oil with a hint of garlic and finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan, creating a balanced plate that's as nutritious as it is flavorful.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Red Lentil Pasta (dry)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs (chopped)
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the chopped fresh herbs and minced garlic. Rub this mixture evenly over the chicken breast.
Place the coated chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken is baking, cook the red lentil pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced zucchini, and sauté until just tender, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and stir until just wilted.
Toss in the cooked pasta with the vegetables to combine flavors.
Slice the baked chicken breast and serve it atop or alongside the pasta primavera. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
