Steps:
- In a large pot bring water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and season with salt, black pepper and oregano. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned and cooked through. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant. Transfer to plate and set aside.
- Add butter to the same skillet and melt over medium high heat. Add remaining minced garlic and asparagus and saute for 1 minute, until just starting to turn bright green. Whisk in the cream, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic powder, oregano, parmesan and mozarella cheese. Allow the sauce to thicken and cheese to melt. Add the drained pasta and chicken back into the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper to taste (I used about 1 1/2 teaspoons salt + 1/2 teaspoon black pepper). Toss to coat well until everything is heated through.
- Serve hot and sprinkle with more parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and lemon slices, if desired.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Choose Fresh Ingredients: Using fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your dish. Look for bright, vibrant vegetables and tender chicken.
- Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Use a Good Quality Olive Oil: Extra virgin olive oil is a healthy and flavorful choice for cooking. It has a low smoke point, so it's not suitable for high-heat cooking.
- Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in the recipe to your liking. Taste the dish as you go and add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
