What better way to celebrate spring than with a bright, fresh, lemon pasta dish? One of our favorite spring veggies—asparagus—takes center stage in this recipe, paired with tender chicken breasts and a simple creamy, lemony sauce. The entire dish comes together in 30 minutes, making this an easy weeknight dinner to upgrade your weekly rotation, or a dinner-party main to wow all your guests (with very little effort on your part).
While we think this is a perfect spring dinner, you can really enjoy this pasta all year round. If asparagus isn’t at your local supermarket, feel free to swap it out for your favorite seasonal veggie! This dish is fairly hearty on its own, but serve it with some of our favorite side dishes for pasta (we’re looking at you, sheet-pan panzanella, classic Caesar salad, and garlic knots) to make this a complete, filling meal.
