Seared Chicken Breast with Garlic Pasta and Steamed Green Beans
Savor a well-balanced dinner featuring a perfectly seared chicken breast paired with a creamy garlic-infused pasta and tender steamed green beans. This dish delivers a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, offering a light yet satisfying meal that’s both revitalizing and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup steamed Green Beans
2.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 cup Heavy Cream
3 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Prepare the chicken by patting it dry, then season with salt and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, sear the chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and let it rest.
In the same skillet over medium heat, add the minced garlic (about 3 cloves) and sauté until fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
Pour in the heavy cream and add the remaining 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil to create a light, creamy garlic sauce. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions, then drain.
Toss the cooked pasta in the garlic cream sauce to coat evenly.
Steam the green beans until they are tender yet retain a slight crunch (about 4-5 minutes).
Slice the seared chicken breast and serve it alongside the garlic pasta and steamed green beans. Enjoy your balanced and delicious dinner!
