Simple Chicken Pasta With Asparagus, Garlic & Rosemary
- 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
- 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.
