SIMPLE CHICKEN PASTA WITH ASPARAGUS, GARLIC & ROSEMARY



SIMPLE CHICKEN PASTA WITH ASPARAGUS, GARLIC & ROSEMARY image

Categories     Chicken     Pasta     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Dinner

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons (30 ml) grapeseed oil
2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, thinly sliced
4 thin slices of prosciutto, chopped into small pieces (optional)
1 tablespoon (15 ml) garlic powder
6 - 8 stalks of asparagus, chopped into bite size chunks
1/2 small onion, thinly diced
1/4 cup (60 ml) chicken stock (white wine might work too)
kosher or sea salt and black pepper, to taste
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon (15 ml) fresh rosemary, trimmed from stalk and chopped into fine bits
pasta, freshly cooked or leftovers - angel hair, linguine or your choice
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) freshly grated asiago or parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare ingredients as noted. Add oil to a deep dish frying pan over medium heat on stove top. Once oil is heated, add chicken breasts, prosciutto, onion, garlic powder, a bit of salt and pepper. Saute together, stirring periodically, for 2 to 3 minutes before adding asparagus, crushed garlic and rosemary. Add chicken stock (or white wine) and cover for 3 or 4 minutes, stirring from time to time, until chicken is cooked (not overdone). (As the chicken is thinly sliced it won't take long to cook. The asparagus should be crisp with a bright colour when the pasta is served.) Add enough pasta for two people. Mix with other ingredients and heat through. This shouldn't take long. Add cheese and melt through pasta, etc. Season with pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are firm and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted or have brown or yellow spots.
  • Prepping the asparagus: Trim the tough ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by snapping off the bottom inch or two, or by using a sharp knife to cut it off.
  • Cooking the asparagus: There are several ways to cook asparagus. You can roast it, grill it, sauté it, or steam it. Roasting is a great way to bring out the natural sweetness of the asparagus.
  • Selecting the right chicken: Choose boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for this recipe. You can also use bone-in chicken, but you will need to adjust the cooking time.
  • Marinating the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and rosemary helps to add flavor and moisture to the chicken.
  • Cooking the chicken: Cook the chicken until it is cooked through. You can do this by baking it, grilling it, or pan-frying it. Make sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

This rosemary asparagus chicken recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the asparagus is perfectly roasted. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
