INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
6 spears Asparagus
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the asparagus ends and halve the cherry tomatoes. Toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them out on the baking sheet and roast for about 12-15 minutes until tender.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove the chicken and let it rest before slicing.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In the same skillet, add a little olive oil if needed, then sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice to create a light sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the lemon garlic sauce, then gently toss in the roasted asparagus and cherry tomatoes.
Slice the chicken breast and serve atop the pasta and vegetable mixture, adding a final sprinkle of salt and pepper if desired.
