INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread out on a baking sheet. Roast for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until thoroughly cooked and golden.
In a small bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Stir well to form a creamy garlic sauce.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of the cooking water.
Slice the cooked chicken breast and toss it with the pasta. Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the chicken and pasta, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
Plate the chicken and pasta, and serve with a side of roasted asparagus. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
