A satisfying dish featuring tender chicken breast tossed with whole wheat pasta in a light, creamy sauce made from Greek yogurt and a hint of olive oil. Complemented by sweet green peas for a burst of freshness, this recipe is perfect for a balanced meal with a healthy dose of protein and flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Green Peas
1 clove Garlic
1/4 medium Onion
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add the chicken. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and finely chopped onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the green peas to the skillet and sauté for another minute.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a light creamy sauce. Mix in the cooked whole wheat pasta until evenly coated.
Fold in the sliced chicken and gently toss everything together. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-rich creamy chicken pasta.
