Preparation
- Cook the twists according to the package directions, drain and set aside. Wash the asparagus, cut their base and cook them for 8 to 10 minutes in gentle steam. They must remain “al dente”.
- Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise (if they are large) and fry them, about 4 min per side. Let cool and cut them into thick slices. Wash the zucchini, slice them on an angle and quickly fry them in a pan, in a drizzle of olive oil.
- Squeeze the lemon juice and mix it with olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Divide the pasta, vegetables and plum wedges between plates, add sliced chicken breasts, drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with basil leaves.
The health advantage
We always cook pasta al dente, to avoid exploding their glycemic index. Also for this purpose, they are also served with green vegetables. You can also choose sobas (Japanese spaghetti made from buckwheat), whose GI is naturally lower.
