Something Healthy, ...Finally

Herb Chicken Pasta

I've been promising to post something healthy, healthier at least LOL.  It's not that I don't cook healthy usually, its just more fun cooking with butter and sugar ya know?!

Anyway this meal was pretty easy to prepare, I would have grilled the chicken (rosemary marinated) but it was kinda cloudy, didn't want to get stuck in the rain so I sauteed.

Then I used whole grain this spaghetti and any veggies I had on hand which happened to be red peppers, spinach and green beans.  Once the chicken cooked I mixed the veggies in with the cooked pasta just to get them partially cooked, wanted them to stay crisp.

For sauce I added Italian herbs, lemon juice, white wine, and a little chicken broth, salt and pepper to taste.

I love one-dish meals like this, very quick and simple, chicken can be omitted altogether or replaced with shrimp.  Its very light, I made a salad with it also.

Thanks for tuning in!
