Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken with Creamy Whole Wheat Pasta
Savor the bright, aromatic essence of lemon and fresh herbs combined with tender roasted chicken and a silky, creamy whole wheat pasta. This dish balances hearty protein with whole grains, all brought together with a delicate cream sauce that brightens every bite.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Light Cream
1/2 lemon (juice)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tablespoon Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme)
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, half of the chopped herbs, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Roast the chicken in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, then let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, sauté minced garlic in a tiny drizzle of olive oil until fragrant. Add light cream and lemon juice to the pan, stirring well to combine. Let the sauce simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
Toss the cooked pasta in the creamy lemon-garlic sauce and mix in the remaining fresh herbs.
Plate the pasta and top with sliced roasted chicken. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy a wholesome, flavorful meal!
