Creamy Chicken and Whole Wheat Pasta Carbonara
Savor a comforting, lightly creamy pasta dish featuring tender sautéed chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and a luscious, egg-based sauce enriched with a hint of Parmesan. This dish delivers a balanced, nutritious meal with a satisfying blend of textures and flavors.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Nonfat Milk
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook until fully done and lightly golden, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, nonfat milk, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.
Return the drained pasta to the skillet over low heat. Stir in the sliced chicken, then remove the pan from direct heat.
Quickly pour in the egg mixture, stirring consistently to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the egg. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as desired.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your creamy, protein-packed carbonara.
