I found this recipe in a booklet I picked up at the grocery store. I adapted it to a lower sodium recipe because the original recipe had 1000 mg. of sodium. Which I think is an insane amount of sodium.

Ingredients

4 serv.
  • baby carrots, quartered lengthwise1 1⁄2 cups
  • asparagus spear, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2 in. piece1 lb
  • fettuccine pasta, whole wheat is preferred8 ounces
  • unsalted chicken stock2 cups
  • cornstarch2 tablespoons
  • lemon pepper1 teaspoon
  • garlic powder1⁄2 teaspoon
  • boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips1 lb
  • dried basil2 teaspoons
  • lemon peel, grated, fresh2 teaspoons

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Steam carrots and asparagus together until tender. Try not to overcook. Keep warm.

  2. 2

    Cook the whole wheat fettucine according to package directions. Try to time this to get done when the chicken is done cooking.

  3. 3

    Blend together the chicken stock, corn starch, lemon pepper and garlic powder in a bowl and set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook chicken breast strips until no longer pink. Approximately 8 minutes.

  5. 5

    Pour the chicken stock mixture into pan and boil until it starts to thicken. Add in the fettucine, asparagus, and carrots. Stir well.

  6. 6

    When all combined stir in the basil and lemon peel. Cook an additional minute. And serve.

  7. 7

    You can sprinkle parmesan cheese on top of each serving if desired. Just know that the parmesan is not figured into the nutrition info listed.
