Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    3 cups high fiber angel-hair pasta; cooked
    15 spears asparagus; cut to bite size pieces
    2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
    1/2 c chopped onion
    1.5 cups fresh mushrooms (I used baby portabellas)
    1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
    1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
    1/4 c feta cheese (I used herb & garlic kind)
    1 medium tomato
    Pinch of red pepper flakes, to taste

Directions

Cook pasta according to pkg directions. Meanwhile, cut chicken into bite-sized cubes & place n skillet with olive oil.
Cook until nearly done. Add asparagus and mushrooms, continue cooking until chicken is done. Add chicken broth and cover pan, cook until asparagus is crisp tender.
Add pasta, red pepper flakes to taste, and feta cheese.

Remove from heat.
Serve with diced fresh tomatoes to garnish.

Add a thickener if you wish - OR if you wish to use leftovers as a soup the next day, use whole can of broth. It's VERY soupy but the broth is even better the next day as it picks up more of the asparagus and spice of the pepper flakes overnight!
