Creamy Lemon Herb Chicken Pasta with Roasted Asparagus
Savor a delightful plate of tender chicken breast tossed with whole wheat pasta in a velvety lemon-herb yogurt sauce, perfectly complemented by roasted asparagus. This dish beautifully balances bright, zesty flavors with creamy richness for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
6 spears Asparagus
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Basil)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for the asparagus.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Sear it in a lightly oiled pan over medium-high heat until browned on both sides, then finish cooking through either in the pan or in a preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped fresh herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well to make a creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and toss with the pasta and creamy lemon herb sauce.
Plate the pasta and chicken, and serve with a side of roasted asparagus. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
