Quick, easy and low fat
Ingredients:
1Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic (2 cloves)
1 lb skinless, boneless, chicken breast strips
8 oz dry egg noodles
1 small bunch fresh asparagus
1 can (7 oz) mushrooms, drained
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup light sour cream or non-fat yogurt
No asparagus ? Use frozen green beans or broccoli instead.
Procedure:
Heat olive oil and saute chickenstrips and garlicfor 7 or 8 minutes until chicken is no longer pink.
Meanwhile, add egg noodles to boiling water, boil for 6 minutes. Meanwhile, wash asparagus and trim off stock ends, cut diagonally
into 1 1/2" slices, add to the pot of boiling noodles. You want to cook the fresh asparagus for only about 3 minutes, so adding
it to the noodles just before they are done, is perfect timing. Add 1 can drained mushrooms to chicken mixture and cook
1 minute. Meanwhile, mix together the Dijon mustard and light sour cream, or yogurt, add to bubbling
chicken and mushrooms. When the noodles and asparagus are done, drain and transfer to a serving dish. Serve the
Creamy Chicken Dijon over the noodles with asparagus, and place sliced tomatoes, cucumbers and a fresh fruit cup on the side.
