Creamy Cauliflower Chicken Alfredo with Zucchini Noodles
Savor a lighter twist on classic Alfredo by blending steamed cauliflower into a creamy sauce, tossed with tender chicken breast and fresh zucchini noodles. This dish offers a satisfying balance of flavors, where the richness of Parmesan and Greek yogurt accentuates the earthy notes of cauliflower and the mild sweetness of zucchini.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower, chopped
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat half a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then add the chopped cauliflower. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until soft.
Transfer the sautéed cauliflower and garlic to a blender and blend until smooth, adding a splash of water if needed to achieve a creamy consistency.
Return the cauliflower puree to the skillet and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese to form a creamy Alfredo sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the pre-cooked, sliced chicken back to the skillet and gently stir to coat with the sauce.
Toss in the spiralized zucchini noodles and heat through for 1-2 minutes, just until the noodles are slightly tender but still crisp.
Plate the dish and garnish with a sprinkle of additional Parmesan or freshly cracked pepper if desired. Enjoy your healthy, creamy chicken Alfredo with zucchini noodles.
