Bow Tie Lemon Chicken

"From Light & Tasty. A creamy, healthy and quick one-dish meal. I think I use a little more lemon pepper seasoning when I make it, but have not noted it on the recipe, so adjust according to taste. Alson tastes great with a little white wine added to the sauce - maybe 1/2 cup chicken broth plus 1/2 cup white wine....or is good as-is - whatever you prefer.:)"

  1. My teen daughter loves this recipe. We are eating it as I type this. My son, dislike vegetables. So, we will see how he likes the taste minus the vegtables. I just garlic power versa real garlic and can sweet peas and can carrot slices.
     
  2. I didn't care for the sauce. It tasted like mayonnaise to me.
     
  3. A good quick and easy dinner. I didn't have peas & carrots so I used frozen broccoli instead. I also added corn starch to thicken the sauce a bit. Nice tasty dish - will definitely make again!
     
  4. Praise the Lord, my husband likes a low-fat recipe! This was so tasty! We did use the wine as suggested and used a pretty liberal amount of shaved parmesan (I like the texture). Is it still low-fat if you have seconds?
     
  5. This was very good, so quick and easy to make on a weeknight. The cream cheese adds just the right amount of creaminess and flavor to the pasta and vegetables.

  2. We loved this, especially for how healthy(ish) it is and how easy to make. I did take your suggestion and use half wine and half chicken broth and it definitely gave the dish some additional depth. I didn't measure the lemon pepper - I just sprinkled on what looked right to me but it was definitely more than 1/2 teaspoon. I replaced the canola oil with olive oil, skipped the salt entirely and doubled the garlic. We will definitely be havintg this again. Thanks for posting!
