INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cubed Butternut Squash
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread it on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
While the squash roasts, season the chicken breast with garlic powder, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper to create a herb crust. If desired, lightly pat the herbs onto the meat.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken breast for 2-3 minutes per side until golden, then finish cooking in the oven (or cover and cook on low heat) until internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 10-12 minutes total.
Once the squash is roasted, transfer it to a blender or food processor. Add the Greek yogurt and blend until smooth, creating a creamy puree. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Plate the herb-crusted chicken and spoon over a generous portion of the butternut squash puree. Garnish with extra parsley if desired, and serve warm.
