INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
3/4 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Asparagus (roughly 6 spears)
1.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Allow it to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add the remaining olive oil. Place the marinated chicken breast in the pan and sear for about 5-6 minutes per side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is golden brown on both sides.
Slice the chicken and arrange on a plate with the pasta and roasted asparagus. Optionally, drizzle with any remaining pan juices for extra flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
