Lemon Garlic Mushroom Asparagus Pasta is a delicious recipe of penne pasta with crunchy asparagus and meaty mushrooms with fresh flavours of lemon and garlic. Simple, hearty and super quick.
I love asparagus and mushroom and wanted to create a dish keeping the flavours of the vegetables fresh. I went with a classic fresh and zingy lemon garlic combo, and it is a perfect balance of flavours. This recipe is so incredibly fast and easy that it is one of those recipes you will have memorized and return to again and again for a quick healthy and delicious dinner on busy nights.
The key to acing this dish is to cook the asparagus and mushroom until they are crispy and slightly charred. The slight char adds a whole new dimension to the enticing flavour to this recipe. Although one can use any pasta for this recipe, I would highly recommend using a pasta that is similar in size and shape to asparagus so that everything mixes and coats well in the pan. For me, Penne always wins hands down! And finally use a fresh lemon as we add the lemon peel and the juice to the pasta. The lemon peels allow you to use a lot of lemon flavour without a ton of acidity.
Lemon Garlic Mushroom Asparagus Pasta is my simple yet delicious recipe which is comforting and quick for busy nights. No one can go wrong with this recipe!
