Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Saute chicken strips in olive oil, lemon juice, lemon-pepper seasoning, and garlic in a skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • While chicken cooks, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Toss cooked pasta with chicken, sauce from the skillet, and green onion. Garnish with fresh lemon wedges.
