Lemon Herb Chicken with Lentil Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast and tender lentil pasta tossed in a bright, zesty lemon-herb sauce with sautéed zucchini and fresh parsley.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Lentil pasta
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Zucchini
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Lemon zest
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lentil pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and sear for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same pan, add the sliced zucchini and minced garlic, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken and lentil pasta to the skillet. Pour in the lemon juice and add the lemon zest, tossing everything together for 1-2 minutes to combine and heat through.
Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
