CREAMY LEMON CHICKEN WITH ASPARAGUS

Lemon Chicken Wraps from Delish.com are the easiest weeknight dinner or lunch. 

Lemon Chicken Wraps

lemons, divided

garlic,

Italian seasoning

Kosher salt

chicken breasts

c. plain Greek yogurt

sauce,

Pita bread

Butterhead lettuce

tomatoes

I just made this recipe and followed instructions exactly. The chicken is really good! I didn't like the yogurt sauce at all. I think it was the paprika. The raw spice didn't work with the other ingredients. I ended up using leftover Tzatziki that I had instead.

The sauce is horrible. The family liked everything else but I'll be looking for a different sauce to go on top.

The Lemon Chicken Wraps That Almost Broke The Internet

Simple and delicious fettuccine pasta made with garlic, parmesan cheese, lemon, and herbs. Then topped with sliced chicken breast.

Lemon Chicken Pasta

olive oil (divided)

lb chicken breast

Kosher salt and pepper (to taste)

herbs de Provence

fettuccine pasta (gluten-free option,

oz artichoke hearts, coarsely chopped (one can)

baby spinach

parmesan cheese

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. I use a large one to finish up the pasta in it.

Add the chicken and season with salt, pepper, and herbs de Provence. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Allow it to sit on a chopping board for a few minutes before slicing it.

Meanwhile, in a soup pot bring water to a boil. Add in 1/2 tbsp salt and the pasta. Cook as directed on the package, then reserve 1 cup of the pasta water before draining.

On the same pan you cooked the chicken, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Sauté the garlic, over medium heat, for 30 seconds. Stir in the artichoke and spinach, and cook, stirring frequently, until the spinach is wilted.

While the pot is still on heat, add in the cooked pasta, together with the pasta water and remaining ingredients.

Toss to combine for a couple of minutes.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
