INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (optional)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and black pepper, and spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and lightly crispy.
While the asparagus is roasting, pat dry the chicken breast and season it with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add a small amount of olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken breast and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the whole wheat pasta (pre-cooked as per package instructions) along with a bit of lemon juice and garlic to warm through and pick up flavor.
Plate the pasta, top it with sliced chicken, and serve with the roasted asparagus. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley for an extra burst of flavor.
