INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.75 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
0.25 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the asparagus and toss it with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until tender.
While the asparagus is roasting, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Sauté in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until cooked through (about 6-7 minutes per side) and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let rest, then slice into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the nonfat plain Greek yogurt with the juice and zest of the lemon. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Combine the pasta, sliced chicken, and roasted asparagus in a serving bowl. Drizzle the lemon yogurt sauce over the top and gently toss to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy this bright, creamy dish that's as nutritious as it is delicious.
