In the mood something different, but simple for supper tonight? This honey lemon spaghetti is it. It’s not the normal tomato sauce spaghetti, but something sweeter, smoother, tastier.
I’ve mentioned a time or two that I love lemon flavored just about anything. I love lemon cookies, and lemon brownies, I love hot honey lemon water, especially when sick. This spaghetti is the perfect meal for an evening when you don’t want to cook a big meal. It takes no time to make, but makes spaghetti night special.
Honey Lemon Spaghetti with Chicken
Cook pasta according to the package instructions.
Pour the tablespoon of oil into the bottom of a large skillet, add chicken. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes flip, cook until about 90% cooked.
Mix together the honey, 2 tablespoons of oil, lemon juice, vinegar, and optional thyme in a mixing bowl.
Once chicken is 90% cooked turn heat down to low, add in the honey lemon sauce. Stir in pasta and combine.
Once combined cover for a few minutes to let flavors combine. Serve hot.
