INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 oz Cashews
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
Salt & Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss broccoli with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a little olive oil and pan-sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden. Remove and let rest before slicing.
To prepare the creamy cashew sauce, place cashews, garlic cloves, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and about 3-4 tablespoons of water in a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust water to reach desired consistency; season with salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the cashew garlic sauce until evenly coated. Top with sliced pan-seared chicken and roasted broccoli.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
