INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast, Boneless Skinless
2 oz dry Chickpea Pasta
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F if finishing the chicken in the oven, or heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pat the chicken breast dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and finely chopped fresh mixed herbs.
For an extra herb-crusted texture, lightly press additional herbs onto the chicken surface.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in the skillet and sear the chicken on each side for about 2-3 minutes until golden. Then finish cooking in the oven for about 10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, or cook entirely in the skillet over low heat, covering until done.
While the chicken is cooking, bring a pot of water to boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Combine the pasta with the warm marinara sauce in a serving bowl. Slice the herb-crusted chicken and arrange on top of the saucy pasta.
Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
