This is a great dish for the summer. It has a light, citrus-y taste that is wonderful on a hot day. If you have fresh herbs (i have one little oregano plant and a basil plant, and both contributed a few leaves for this recipe), it tastes excellent as garnish.
- 5 oz pasta, tube pasta like mostacchioli or penne works best
- 4 oz chicken breast
- salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, italian seasoning
- 1 lemon
- olive oil
- 1/2 small onion
- a few cloves of garlic, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan
- fresh herbs, like oregano, basil, and/or parsley
- Boil pasta.
- While that's going on, season your chicken with the seasonings above, or whatever you like to season your chicken with. those are just suggestions.
- Grill chicken. I used a george foreman. Then slice into chunks.
- Put olive oil in skillet, bring to medium low heat. Sweat the onions and garlic until golden.
- Throw in chicken, bring the heat up a little and stir.
- Add cooked pasta. Remove from heat. Add parmesan cheese.
- Squeeze the juice of one lemon into the skillet, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with herbs.
Serves 2. Enjoy!
