INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, minced garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Marinate the chicken in the lemon garlic mixture for about 10-15 minutes.
While marinating, bring a pot of salted water to boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Place the asparagus on a baking sheet and toss with a small amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken, about 4-5 minutes per side or until fully cooked, ensuring it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Slice the chicken and toss it gently with the cooked pasta and the remaining lemon garlic sauce.
Plate the pasta and chicken alongside the roasted asparagus. Garnish with additional lemon zest or fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
