INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Asparagus
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and chopped garlic. Sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat until golden and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped fresh parsley, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create a creamy sauce.
Add the drained pasta and sliced chicken to the pan used for the chicken to warm slightly. Stir in the lemon herb yogurt sauce until everything is evenly coated.
Plate the creamy pasta and top with the roasted asparagus. Garnish with additional parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon if desired, and serve warm.
