INGREDIENTS
2 oz dry Chickpea Pasta
3 oz grilled Chicken Breast
1 cup roasted Broccoli
1/8 cup Raw Cashews
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 Garlic clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss broccoli florets with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until edges are crispy.
Cook chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine raw cashews (soaked in hot water for 10 minutes to soften if desired), unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth to form a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear over medium heat until fully cooked (approximately 3-4 minutes per side). Once cooked, slice into strips.
In a large bowl, toss the warm pasta with the creamy cashew Alfredo sauce until evenly coated.
Plate the pasta, top with roasted broccoli and sliced grilled chicken, then serve immediately.
