INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup whole wheat pasta (cooked from 1/2 cup dry)
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Squeeze half a lemon over the chicken and add a minced garlic clove and chopped fresh herbs for extra flavor.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for about 2 minutes on each side until lightly golden, then transfer to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until cooked through.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus, toss with a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips. In a large bowl, combine the pasta, roasted asparagus, and chicken.
Finish by zesting additional lemon over the dish and mixing gently to combine all flavors. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
