Lemon-Pepper Chicken Pasta
Ingredients
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- cup olive oil
- cup lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Directions
Step 1: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and lemon juice over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken breasts, lemon-pepper seasoning, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 7 to 10 minutes.
Step 2: While the chicken cooks, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the farfalle pasta and cook for about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a tender but firm texture. Drain the pasta well.
Step 3: Combine the cooked pasta with the chicken mixture in the skillet. Toss well to coat the pasta in the sauce. Add the thinly sliced green onions and toss again.
Step 4: Serve the dish with lemon wedges on the side for extra flavor.
